However Alexandre doesn't like binary files in the CVS for good reasons
While I can see that to a point, it's not 100% clear to me that storing a .gif (or what have you) in CVS is such a bad idea. I mean, the main advantage of storing stuff as plain text is to be able to look at (and undrestand :)) the diffs. However, that's not the case for images, even when stored in a text format.
CVS can handle binary files no problem. Can someone please refresh my memory on why storing binary _images_ in CVS is such a bad idea?
