Fisheye is a revision-control browsing and search tool created by Atlassian, Inc. Although it is a proprietary solution, Fisheye is provided at no cost to open source initiatives and non-profit entities. It offers sophisticated search functions and diff analysis, including:
- Tracking of changelogs and changesets—even for version control systems such as CVS that do not inherently support these features
- URLs tied directly to resources, extending to individual line numbers
- Alerts and monitoring through email or RSS
Use in open-source projects
Atlassian provides complimentary licenses for community-driven and open-source applications under defined terms. Numerous prominent open source projects employ Fisheye as an interface for browsing their code repositories:
| Project | Fisheye URL |
|---|---|
| JBoss | https://source.jboss.org |
| Apache | https://fisheye.apache.org/browse |
Additionally, Atlassian supplies free licenses for both Fisheye and Crucible to support open-source efforts.
Integration
By 2010, Fisheye was compatible with major revision control systems such as:
The resource-specific URLs facilitate connectivity with various issue and bug tracking system tools. Fisheye also provides a REST and XML-RPC API, and integrates with development environments like IntelliJ IDEA via the Atlassian IDE Connector.
