You might check your system to see if cvs2cl.py or cvs2cl.pl is installed.
I think the cvs2cl.py is the one you will want, for windows.
The script will generate a "Changelog" for all of the files and directories 
inside of the directory you run it in.  I don't know if there is a way to tie 
an eclipse button to the script, but until you figure out how to do that you 
will want to run the script from the command line and then read the Changelog 
_file_ that it outputs.
