SVN History View

'SVN History View' provides information on a history of resource change. The user can simply watch the change history, open editor on a specified revision, load a revision, revert the workspace to the revision. If the Subversion server and client versions used is 1.5 then the revisions, which took part in the previous merges of this resource are shown as children of the main history nodes. The user can group the log messages by date, select if to show remote history, local history or both.
