Exploring history: a sample script and a question

From: Stephane Bortzmeyer <bortzmeyer_at_nic.fr>

I like the "time machine" abilities of VCS like Subversion and I often
ask myself questions like "When did we deleted this interesting
function named foobar or fubar? I would like to retrieve it."

Since I find no way to directly answer this question with Subversion
(or CVS), I developed the attached script.

It seems there is no other solution than to retrive all the versions
of the file and grep in them. Is there any server-side solution that I
missed?
