SVN has the feature to show on its LHS bar the past revisions on the file open.

I'm currently doing this by Team > Show Annotation or by using the short-cut: ^ALT-A.

How can i set this as default on Eclipse-SVN-- so that these annotations will show automatically when i open a file and i won't have to do it from scratch for each and every file i open.

TIA.

Note: i saw Show annotations not working and Eclipse: Show Annotation from Previous Revision among some other useful discussions.

Amazingly, this still isn't possible. I'm using Eclipse 4.4.2 and tried the latest Subclipse and Subversive plug-ins - whereas I'm not sure if that choice really matters. I've searched around for hours now, but have to come to the conclusion that it just isn't possible.

    This is very, very annoying. – Henrique de Sousa Apr 24 '19 at 14:03

    @HenriquedeSousa Yes, indeed. By the way, [10 years ago, the rationale was](https://stackoverflow.com/a/1860484/1529709) that "Since this is a pretty expensive operation, you can't make it the default". I wonder if this still holds. – zb226 Apr 24 '19 at 14:22
