??? Strange, I'd expect them to contain signatures (MD5 or something) and
get the whole copy from the server when needed to diff (after all the files
[each one separately] aren't huge)
SVN does keep a copy in the .svn folder. This is how it manages to
create a diff without communicating with the server. SVN tries to
communicate as little as possible with the server, which I think is
excellent. It is also great for people with slow internet
connections.
