Is it possible to make Eclipse keep more then one historical copy then one?
I noticed the setting of the number of copies to keep for each file but it
also states then when starting the workbench it will reset. I want to keep
an history of, let's say, the last 14 days, that will be around 20 copies
for each file. possible?
If not. Can anyone recommend on a light weight source safe, that can run
local, and that Eclipse will be able to communicate with?
Thanks.

Another response explained the Local History preferences, but I want to
warn you that relying on Eclipse's Local History feature instead of a
real source management and versioning system is risky - you're asking
for trouble.
CVS is easy to set up, or you can use a service that will host it for
free/cheap (SourceForge, java.net, FrsehMeat.net, cvsdude.org, etc.).
Trust years of experience that says you'll wish you had it one day.
HTH,
