SVN Search Feature?

Hi all-

I've been googling around to find out how to search a repository, and
it seems that there are a fair number of people who have taken it upon
themselves to write one, but commercially and not.

I'm sort of surprised...until I suddenly needed to find something, it
hadn't even occurred to me that search wasn't built in. Am I missing
something, or is it really only a 3rd-party-option to be able to find
a string within a repository? I can appreciate that it would be
involved to search binary files (if at all), but any file marked as
text should be easily accessible.

If svn doesn't provide it out of the box, is there some thought to do
so? If not, does anyone have any recommendations about a good "search"
engine for subversion? Preferably it would be able to search in
multiple versions of a file.

Thanks!
