Have a look at the functionality behind the Team | Show blame annotations option. This displays in the editor who last modified each line and which commit
is associated with it.
It may be all you need to do to achieve the specification below, is allow the commit and author names to be hyper links that allow you to compose and send
your message.

Subject: [egit-dev] Egit and API
Hi,
I'm an italian student of University of Bari, and with my thesis I want create a plugin that implement social awareness on team that use Egit.
The work go on and now i want create a timeline that follow this scenario:
"Paul is a member of team that develop an application using Eclipse with Egit plugin and SocialPlugin.
He open a file that has been modified previously by your friend John. When open a file he find the wrong code.
With the timeline on SocialPlugin he send a post on John (that is your friend on Facebook) and ask him questions about the wrong code"
For fix the scenario the SocialPlugin should communicate with Egit ( with API ) for information about:
1. Who is the last user of team that have modify the file that Paul opened.
2. The information about the repository that houses the file
Are there something on Egit plugin that can help me?
I waiting for an answer.
Thanks for your time and for all tutorial.
Have a nice day.
Floriano
