I didn't know how to properly ask the question and for that I apologize.

Basically I want to know how can I set up eclipse to recognize the version of the project I am working on and how many revisions etc.

I had this working on CVS but for some reason on GIT I can't get it to work.

On CVS I had this block of comment code

/*
 * ${file_name}
 *
 * Version:
 * $$Id$$
 * Revisions:
 * $$Log$$
 */

And of course it would display the file name, version and revision. With GIT it does nothing...

I googled as much as I could and found no answer, hopefully one of you guys can help me out. Thanks

thank you for that link @FredericHenri, I'll check and see if it solves my issue – Sep 16 '15 at 16:24
Well I might go back to CVS, apparently according to many user comments on that page GIT has no intention in supporting this – Sep 16 '15 at 16:28
If you **really want** keywords, move to SVN|Mercurial, not rollback to CVS – Lazy Badger Sep 16 '15 at 18:09
