Consider this situation:
- I
have a 16MB binary file stored on a CVS server
- I
add 2MB of data to this file after checking it out.
- I
commit my changes.
- Using
viewcvs, I download both version 1.1 and 1.2
Since CVS (from what I
understand) can’t really look at the contents of a binary file, how does
it store the revision? I assumed
that it would overwrite the 1.1 with 1.2, but I was able to download both. Looking at the directory of my
repository, I only see the file that is the size of 1.2. How is this?
Thanks!
