One line summary
Add ability to checkout, status and commit code directly from the EiffelStudio environment.

Description
Given a project configuration file, EiffelStudio should be capable to retrieve the source code associated with this project, and have the ability to have a way to find out which files have been modified since last commit, to commit those changes, to see the logs of some files.
The project could start by wrapping subversion, since this is what EiffelStudio is using, but should not loose track of others SCM such as CVS, Git and others.
