I don't understand this deal about Subversion supporting or not supporting .odt files. What support does it provide? Wouldn't it just treat them like general binary files? I certainly don't expect any SCM to keep patches of the XML inside the file. That would be rather difficult.

Cheers,
Daniel.

Hi,

I have just started to play with subversion and TortoiseSVN.
TortoiseSVN supports diff for .DOC (MS Office) and .sxw (OOo 1)
files, but not yet for .odt files. TortoiseSVN can use an external
diff application. So can anyone point me to such an application.
I want to put my Openoffice documents in a Subversion repository, and
being able to get a diff between two versions of a document makes
things much easier.
