Abstract
In huge projects, developers sometimes tend to be confused by the quantity of commits to CVS repository. To document changes or describe a commit, comments are used. To quickly find a commit that is interesting for developer, we should have a search feature (integrated with Eclipse's search dialog) that is able to scan all the commit comments and presents search results in a pleasant way.
