VisualSVN Server includes a full-text search feature, which you can try out on our demo server <https://demo-server.visualsvn.com/>. You can see for yourself how fast it is. Here's an example: <http://goog_885615415> https://demo-server.visualsvn.com/!/#asf/search/head/subversion/trunk?q=filename%3A*.c%20content%3A%22int%20main%22&type=contents https://demo-server.visualsvn.com/!/#asf/search/head/subversion/trunk?q=cmake&type=history > And trying to search their mailing list > or web forums is a no-go because they don't have them.

If you have any questions or need assistance, please contact us at supp...@visualsvn.com. For more information on configuring the search feature, please refer to the article KB178: Getting started with full-text search <https://www.visualsvn.com/support/topic/00178/> and the corresponding section of the Documentation <https://www.visualsvn.com/server/documentation/#Full-Text-Search> page. > Jeff > -- With best regards, Pavel Lyalyakin VisualSVN Team
