Browse bazaar (or CVS/SVN/Git) repository with GUI?

Question

Is there a nice, open-source, free way to browse a bazaar (or other source control) repository?

What I had in mind is a wikipedia-history-like browsing, where I can watch and compare any two versions of the code.

EDIT: I strongly prefer Ubuntu tools.

Thanks,

Udi

If you are using windows ("gui" tag ?), what about TortoiseBzr ?

If you want some web-based tool ("browser" tag), you can take a look at the WebInterfaces page, which lists a couple of possibilities.

Loggerhead seems quite good :

Loggerhead is a web viewer for projects in bazaar. It can be used to navigate a branch history, annotate files, view patches, perform searches, etc. It's originally based on bazaar-webserve, which is itself based on hgweb for Mercurial.

And here is a demo page, that allows you to navigate, see diffs, ... use the application, actually, on a real repository : http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~bzr/bzr/trunk/changes

For SVN :

• On WIndows, I'd say TortoiseSVN
• Web-based, what about WebSVN ? Here is a demo.

For GIT : there is a full/long-list on the InterfacesFrontendsAndTools wiki page.

• Web-based, you could take a look at gitweb ; here is a demo.
• For both GUI and Web based, the list is quite long -- I'll let you go through it by yourself ^^

For CVS : ergh, is anyone still using CVS ? (yeah, I know, I know...)

• Web-based : maybe WebCVS would do ?

You also have plenty of other tootls ; some can even deal with multiple kind of repositories.

For instance, you have InDefero (which does more than just repository-browsing ; it's been described as a google-code clone, actually).
