Eclipse nicely remembers my last CVS commit comment I entered for a commit but I would like to be able to choose from any of the previous commit comments I have made. So, it would be really great to have this feature in the commit dialog, a drop down list box which would change the content of the text area depending on which entry in the list is selected. Every time I successfully commit a file, that comment is added to the list. Each list item could just be the first, say 30 characters of the commit comment, ignoring CRs, LFs, and Tabs. I am not sure when this list should be reset, perhaps never but then you'd need a "Delete Comment" button next to the drop down to get rid of a given comment. which would be fine. Thank you for considering this feature request. Eclipse is great, so keep up this great work. I look forward to your comments, if any, on this topic. Thank you, Gary Gregory (I am using the released 2.0 build)
This is a good idea. We were interested in it for 2.0 but didn't have the time. A nice small fix for someone in the commmunity perhaps? :) *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 9915 ***
