**Fisheye** is a [revision-control](/source/Revision_control) browser[1] and search engine owned by [Atlassian](/source/Atlassian), Inc. Although Fisheye is a commercial product, it is freely available to [open source](/source/Open-source_software) projects and [non-profit](/source/Non-profit) institutions.[2] In addition to the advanced search[3] and [diff](/source/Diff) capabilities,[4] it provides:

- the notion of changelog and changesets[5] - even if the underlying version control system (such as [CVS](/source/Concurrent_Versions_System)) does not support this

- direct, resource-based URLs down to line-number level[6]

- monitoring and user-level notifications via [e-mail](/source/E-Mail) or [RSS](/source/RSS)[7]

## Use in open-source projects

Atlassian approves free licenses for community and open-source installations[2] under certain conditions. Many major open source projects use Fisheye to provide a front-end for the source code repository:[8]

Project Fisheye JBoss https://source.jboss.org Apache https://fisheye.apache.org/browse[permanent dead link]

Atlassian provides free licences of Fisheye and [Crucible](/source/Crucible_(software)) for open-source projects.[9]

## Integration

As of 2010[\[update\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=FishEye_(software)&action=edit) Fisheye supported integration with the following revision control systems:[10]

- [CVS](/source/Concurrent_Versions_System)

- [Git](/source/Git_(software))

- [Mercurial](/source/Mercurial)

- [Perforce](/source/Perforce)

- [Subversion](/source/Apache_Subversion)

Due to the resource-based URLs, it is possible to integrate Fisheye with different [issue](/source/Issue_tracking_system) and [bug tracking systems](/source/Bug_tracking_system). It also provides a [REST](/source/REST) and [XML-RPC](/source/XML-RPC) [API](/source/API). Fisheye also integrates with [IDEs](/source/Integrated_development_environment) like [IntelliJ IDEA](/source/IntelliJ_IDEA)[11] via the Atlassian IDE Connector.
