Hi All,

I am trying to hack the localHistory to allow it to work with multiple files.

The way i have done this so far is to hack the Local History and Versioning UI 
modules and trying to avoid rewriting the NetBeans plumbing (which assumes 
single file History).

I have modified ShowHistoryAction so that it allows history selection on 
multiple files and then opens a new HistoryTopComponent. For the moment, I put 
the Nodes[] into this component so I can access. I keep a copy of the selected 
Nodes which I then use to build a combined History list in HistoryFileView. 

In LocalHistoryProvider, I have my own RevertFile and RevertFiles Actions but 
these are never called by the software. My aim is to then add this 
functionality, which gives me a much better version of history. 
I am not clear how I get the NetBeans system to call my commands and also 
appreciate the current solution is a bit hacky.

I have attached the 2 diffs from the 2 modules. Is there any advice to help me 
complete adding this fucntionality into NetBeans?

Kind Regards,

MArk
