How to view recent CVS project changes in Eclipse?

Is there a way in Eclipse to view all recent changes of a project? Like in SVN, you can just go "view log" on a right-click menu of a folder. In CVS/Eclipse, I can only view history on a certain file. I am not able to see what files were changed in the last commit. >.<'' Thank you! ...

SVN Obliterate!

I was just thinking of writing a shell script to implement the obliteratee functionality in an easy to do way (externally, using the suggested way, but automated).

mirroring a subfolder between two writable SVN repos

Hi, I have a situation I'm trying to cope with involving my company's SVN server. We keep all of our important code in a locked-down server (we'll call this the "dev" server).

I'm using a Subversion repository hosted on Dreamhost for a project. I would like to allow access to some users on a restricted basis.

I can't find user permissions mentioned in t...

SVN Pre Commit Hooks

I have recently installed subversion onto a linux server (CentOS) and everything works great.

Best subversion tool when using Visual Studio Express?

I would like feedback on what people consider the "best" free (or cheap) subversion tool for C#... By "best" I mean easiest for a given level of capability.

Release management in SVN

When I look in the SVN log I really wish I could see markers that tell me when releases were done. I've seen this in other version control systems such as PVCS and Perforce. Can this be done in SVN? I've done a little bit of research and so far it looks like this sort of thing is not supported. Edit We don't want to have to copy our s...

SVN and accented characters

I have a subversion repository that I administer. When I try to add a file which has accented (non-ASCII) characters in its name, the server refuses the command. The server is running on Ubuntu, the client is Eclipse on Windows. I could not find anything in the SVN FAQ about accented characters in filenames, nor in the SVN Book. I know ...
