Looking for some convenient way to to get a 4000 meter view on my project's CVS I found pretty interesting projects that could maybe help …

Cvsplot free and should plot nice graphs with GnuPlut

CVS Monitor looks really pro, but is still open-source… does NOT run on windows (dammit, my admins didn't yet have time to install this tool on the dev server)

StatCVS is an open-source java tool, last changed a year ago… looks neat

CHaloGen a changelog generator, but from back in 2001 nobody even provided a sample config file at that site… looks a little bit dead actually…

well… no perfect stuff at all… another promising commercial package CodeHistorian looked nice, integrates into explorer shell, but simply crashed when some graphs had to be plotted… hum.

I am not yet satisfied… any comments or recommendations for better tools?

Meanwhile some nice CVS related links:

Since you've taken an interest in it, I thought I ought to mention that CVS Monitor has just had a new stable release ( it's first new stable release in over a year ).

Mayhaps your admin guys would like to have another go at installing it?
