'''Bonsai''' is a web-based browser of [[Concurrent Versions System|CVS]] repository designed for large programming projects.  It was initially developed to fill the [[Mozilla]] project's need for good tools to allow multiple developers to edit its extremely large codebase.

Among other features, Bonsai allows complex queries to be performed, as well as near real-time updates of checkins to the CVS server.  Bonsai is released under the [[GNU General Public License]], the [[GNU Lesser General Public License]], and the [[Mozilla Public License]],<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.mozilla.org/MPL/#source-code |title=Mozilla Code Licensing }}</ref> and is thus [[free software]].

Bonsai was founded by [[Terry Weissman]]. It was first written in [[Tcl]], then later ported to Perl. It still uses [[Perl]], but runs off a [[MySQL]] database, and can be served using any [[Perl]] aware webserver, such as [[Apache HTTP Server|Apache]].
