Take a look at cvswrappers. If you want all files matching
a particular filename pattern to have specific commit options,
you can define them here. For instance, you could have:
*.gif -k 'b'
*.jpg -k 'b'
etc.

From section 1.1 of Cederqvist:
1.1 What is CVS?
CVS is a version control system.
The concurrent part is a bonus (which does not apply to jpg files).
Using CVS to record different versions of jpg files seems like a suitable

What exactly do you mean by ``tracking''? CVS can ``handle'' unmergeable
files in a reasonable way. It can store version of them, allow you to
tag them, branch them, retrieve past versions
