I know everyone of us used to have the problem of finding what file we have updated to CVS recently and our current tortoise CVS doesn't allow to view history by project (I think so), so normally we will manually find the file and check the history 1 by 1. gosh... that's tiring...
I've found a cool software that might help us to do the job and cut down the time we wasted on checking files, and yes, it is free. Please goto
http://www.download.com/CVS-Logger/3000-2383_4-10411357.html?tag=lst-1
or goto download.com to find a software called "CVSLogger", download and unzip the application into your pc.
Steps To Open A Project (or specific folder, or specific file) History
1. Upon running the application, goto View --> Options.
2. Change the CVS executable path to your tortoise CVS home. Eg: C:\Program Files\TortoiseCVS
3. Click OK to save the changes.
4. Click File --> Open.
5. Locate the Project/Folder/file that you want to view the history.
6. Click OK to load the history.
7. Wait... It might take a long time to load all the history.
And there you are. With this, you can even filter the history by user basis. Enjoy with the new toy. Thanks alot to Sergey Zozulya for the cool application!
