Moving to Mercurial
While both CVS and Subversion have served me well over the years I have decided to move all my personal coding stuff over to Mercurial. The main reason for me is that for each project I will have all the history available on my local system without having to go back to the server. This is particularly useful when you are offline, but still want to be able to code efficiently ;)
Beyond that if I want to share my code, but do not want to give anyone access to my repositories I can just give them a copy of my local stuff and voila they have the same sources I have!

Yeah a combination of hg and piping it into grep will do the job.by plainkeyman1 - 2009-03-30 19:11
what kind of file format does it use? can you grep through the revision history for comments or code?
