I used Centralised VCS ... and now I don't have a unique BIG commit that is "the moment" i want, I have a lot of little commits, sometimes a single file, and I need to rebuild all the group of applicationa, applications, services, DLLs, at "that moment". >From your answer I understand that this is impossible ... a BIG problem. Used to have this feature, I think this is a big lack.
I'll look at gitk, to see if it can make the search of the file versions (one by one...) a little easier.
