There are many examples of uses of CVS for binary files in the Video Game Developpement world. There is NO good solution to binary files versionning that I know of. For exemple Alien Brain doesn't solve any of the issues and they reinvented the wheel with a proprietary (and ugly) solution based on win32 only servers... Artistic assets management is a real problem for many companies and I'd really like to know about other solutions than CVS.
