OpenGrok is a source code search and cross reference engine. It helps programmers to search, cross-reference and navigate source code trees to aid code comprehension.
It can understand various program file formats and version control histories like Monotone, SCCS, RCS, CVS, Subversion, Mercurial, Git, Clearcase, Perforce and Bazaar.[2]
The name comes from the term grok, a jargon term used in computing to mean "profoundly understand". The term grok originated in a science fiction novel by Robert A. Heinlein called Stranger in a Strange Land.
OpenGrok is being developed mainly by community with the help of a few engineers from Oracle Corporation (former Sun Microsystems). OpenGrok is released under the terms of the Common Development and Distribution License (CDDL).
