I feel left out, seems like more and more folks are getting sponsored ;)

Try the trackModule.pl script in the bin folder of the rules repo. It will 
generate a skelleton rulefile with all (well there are bugs :)) places that 
are interesting.

Other then that svn log -v --stop-on-copy path/to/repo/folder/file is your 
friend.
