Well, I recommend using maven rather than ant. In any case I hope that
if you check in external jar files you use copies whose file name
includes an accurate version number. In my experience this is the only
way with ant based builds to be able to find out what versions of the
checked in jar files you are actually using.
I think that subversion recognizes jar files as binary and doens't
produce diffs of them.

Sometime soon I hope to checkin some JUnit-based tests for testing the
compatibility of our clients and servers. As part of this submission,
I want to checkin the JUnit jar itself (into tools/java alongside the
other jars). Is it ok for the svn diff to contain a big binary file
like this? Will this annoy/confuse reviewers? Is there a more polite
way to submit jar files?
Thanks,
