Hi,
I think you may have trouble with cvs since it is not really ACID
transactional. On the other hand, lots of people use mysql.
If your data fits reasonably well in a rdbms, you may be able to do
something like this:
For each table T, have another table V_T with the same columns + a new
abstract id column. On T, place before update and before delete triggers
that insert the current data into V_T, together with a newly obtained
abstract id. The administrator can revert by updating a T row with a V_T
row.
This does not save space by using diffs, that may not be a problem with
current disk prices.
Does this address your question?
