Here is an external tool that I created yesterday to bring up WinCVS with the current 
IDEA file selected. This makes things much easier, I think.

  <tool name="WinCVS" description="Start WinCVS" showInMainMenu="true" 
showInEditor="true" showInProject="true" showInSearchPopup="true" disabled="false" 
useConsole="false" synchronizeAfterRun="true">
    <exec>
      <option name="COMMAND" value="C:\Program Files\GNU\WinCvs 1.2\WinCVS.exe" />
      <option name="PARAMETERS" value="$FileDir$\$FileName$" />
      <option name="WORKING_DIRECTORY" />
    </exec>
  </tool>

IMHO Idea is the best  editing environment, so to keep it like this it's
better to leave all _advanced_ version control/build/deploy feaures for more
specialized tools. I like that i can check in and out, i like the file diff,
but still when I want to get a stable version, view logs, etc - I use
wincvs. 
btw have you seen SmartCVS - it's realy cute (though my company wouldn't buy
it for me :)

Subject: [Eap-list] CVS Feature Request


The CVS panel in IDEA has almost all of the functionality that I use in
WinCVS.  If it had this one feature, I would be able to abandon external
version control tools altogether:
 
WinCVS has what they call "Flat Mode". It shows all files within a
directory, including all subdirectories - all at once.  Without the filters,
of course, this would be a mess; but with the filters turned on, the user
can see all the files they have altered or added throughout the entire tree
(or just a small piece of the tree, if that's what they want).
 
I understand this wouldn't be a very high priority feature, but I hoped you
would consider it for a future version.
