Cvs annotate interface for emacs
For starters... YES I KNOW THERE ALREADY IS `vc-annotate'.. I didn't like it (not that the author didn't do an amazing job it just wasn't my cup of tea.) I wanted a cvs-annotate that was similar to webcvs. It might be a good idea to merge these in the future. vc-annotate colors the whole buffer and leaves all the annotation information. cvs-annotate tries to remove redundant annotation lines and only marks the current revision. You can highlight multiple revisions if you want. cvs-annotate has additional features as well. It allows you to view the log entry for a specific revision and the diff that was applied. I would really love to see these modifications make it into the standard emacs vc.el package. Until that point it will be known as cvs-annotate. Should this become part of pcl-cvs??? Requirements: Emacs with ELib: http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/gnu/elib/elib.html ;; In order to use this. You need to be open a file that is managed by CVS. You can then run 'cvs-annotate' and another buffer will pop up with the cvs annotation.
