If you use a git clone of the FPC repository, you can very easily and quickly (seconds rather than hours) search the commit history and or the patch details (actual code that changed). eg: git log -S<text> That will search the actual changed source code / patch details for <text>. git log --grep=<text> That will search the commit message/log for <text>. Both these commands execute very fast. Indecently, that is how I found in which Lazarus version certain features were implemented (as can be seen in the "New_IDE_features_since" wiki page for Lazarus). -- Regards, - Graeme - _______________________________________________ fpGUI - a cross-platform Free Pascal GUI toolkit http://fpgui.sourceforge.net _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
