| <H1 CLASS="Head">Filtering CVS Revisions in the History View</H1> |
| <P CLASS="Para">Over time, the revision history for a file can grow drastically. |
| As a result, it may be difficult to find the revision or revisions that you |
| are looking for. Using the filtering mechanism of the History View |
| can help.</P> |
| <P CLASS="Para">To set a filter on a CVS managed resource that is currently being displayed in the History View:</P> |
| <ol> |
| <li>Select the <b>Filter...</b> action from the dropdown menu on the History View toolbar.</li> |
| <li>Enter any branch, author, comment, or date range that you would like the view to display. |
| <p><img src="../images/cvs_filter_res_history.png" alt="Filter Resource History dialog" border="0" ></p> |
| </li> |
| <li>Click <b>OK</b>.</li> |
| </ol> |
| <p>The view will now display only those revisions that match the criteria you |
| entered.</p> |
| <p><b>Tip:</b> You can remove the filter at a later time by selecting <b>Remove Filters</b> from the dropdown menu on the History View toolbar.</p> |
| <p><b>Tip:</b> You can choose whether the filter should match any or all of the |
| criteria by selecting the appropriate radio button in the dialog.</p> |
