Ho yes am experimented in big refactoring of team project. Once again there 
won't be something as a 40% server code change in a row (unless we work on a 
branch and then have to merge it in head)

I use grep on a regular basis. But for scripts or unstructured text searching. 
Moreover, you are assuming all people wanting to contribute to crossfire:
1) know how to handle grep
2) have a grep tool at disposal 
crossfire is multiplatform, not every windows coder have djgnu or wygwin 
installed on their system, and not every coder is skilled like you in grep.
Having to grep throught to code to guess where you have to add your new 
features is a symptom of upcoming code management problems.
