perhaps CVS/SVN needs a bit of redesign to handle the future.
Sorry, I think I was being unclear in my previous mail. I was trying to say:
1. CVS is badly designed and not scalable. It requires server RAM
proportional to the size of the data you're trying to transfer.
2. Subversion is designed for scalability. There is no limit to the
size of files it can handle.
So yes, you should not rely on an unscalable version control system
like CVS, *especially* if you're going to be working with large files.
You should use a system like Subversion instead.
