Just use the "-kb" option when adding files. I don't think CVS
handles diff between binary files well...

Subject: binary files bad idea? why?


Hi,

just read that handling of binary files with cvs is a bad idea (or something
similar).

Well, I guess one has to add that cvs might not be that suitable for the
case of binary files, but, nevertheless, you won't run into trouble if you
properly define them as of type 'binary' at initial import of add to a
repository.

Marko
