Support large repositories!Support large repositories!Posted Apr 4, 2010 0:21 UTC (Sun) by brouhaha (subscriber, #1698)In reply to: Support large repositories! by marcH Parent article: A proposed Subversion vision and roadmap
Because it is desirable to have the same revision history tracking mechanism for the large binary files, rather than having to use some completely different ad-hoc mechanism.
Once you've told the VCS that a file is binary, it doesn't need to do textual diffs and other text-related operations on it, so there's no obvious reason why the VCS shouldn't be able to handle it in a reasonable manner.
