As far as I know, people don't use CVS for databases.
A simple 300MB database might take up many gigs after
just a few revisions. You're better off using the programs
the database comes with for version control and backup.

Subject: Handling Databases
Hi,
How do people go about handling database files in CVS. The easiest,
obvious, way is just to store the Database files as binary files, but if you
just store the DDL you can use all the Diff tools etc, but is more 'work'.
I was just wondering about the 'normal' way.
Cheers
Phil
PS: I am using Interbase if that makes any difference
