Seriously it's just a better way to look at the code repository and view the history etc. especially when your not on your development machine and are so bored that you want to dig through the source code repository for fun!
The front page for the FishEye projects showed a changelog view of the most recent checkins which is always interesting to see where recent development is taking place.
Are there already other CVS browsers setup for jME like CVSWeb (I haven’t really checked it out to much)?
I mainly thought it’d be nice to have to take a quick glance at jME while I’m on a computer without CVS or behind a firewall disallowing external CVS access.
I’ve really only used CVS to pull things from open source projects so I’m not to versed in it (we use clearcase at work and have absolutely no repository browsing or metrics)
imho that php script was the best for viewing the cvs source. the only problem was it didn’t provide any mean to really browse trough the sources. and no diffs. but it still was very nice and simple. most of the time one doesn’t need more than viewing the head and jumping from a class to another.
