I know annotate... in fact until the answers in the list telling about 'finfo',
I've been using annotate to know when a file changed.

I was expecting a way to get the list of versions where I would have to test, if
I want to do a dichotomic search between a 'working version' and a 'not working
version', both in the same branch.

So, the problem I'm facing now is that I have a module in a subdirectory, and I
think that the module is failing. That module has been changed in branches,
merged to trunk, some branches did not get merged... and I find it very hard to
know where that module (a subdirectory full of files, any of them could have the
error) has been changed, for let's say, 'trunk'.

Do you have an idea of how I would have to do that kind of search?

Regards,
Lluís.
