==IRC Talk about CVSUP==
Ok, what i would be interested to know is if i could get fully versioned histories of specific branches, not a versioned copy of the whole code base, due to technical limitations. If this versioning information has a bug number and a reviewer, i can easily implement Blame and version histories into the OpenGrok, making it ideal (imo). Please add your comments as if this were the talk page

Likely OpenGrok would need a dedicatedIt is fast, open souce and most importantly, it makes really easy to navigate, well thought out pages that just work. Because of the way OpenSolaris does file versions for their code, reasonibly fast machinethey don't use branches at all. It seems to be OpenSolaris currently uses a linear method of file versioning, they don't use branches, they use versions as a very powerfulsory of branch, extremely well done application but it basically the idea that Office 12 is the "2007 branch" and Office 11 is missing the ability to associate "blame2003 branch" from what I see. I also donMozilla doesn't know how do this, so it takes care of file versioningwould be nessecary to implement this feature. This happened when indexing the entire 2.9GB mozilla CVSROOTLuckily, however, OpenGrok is very modularized and atomic in nature.
