Aral,
So as long as only one copy of a given binary file is open at a time it's okay to keep it in the SVN repository. I'm not as concerned about the use of diffs yet (probably because ignorance is bliss and I haven't fully figured out how to use the diffs yet). The main goal is to keep the one version safe on the remote server with whatever related incremental changes. In addition to keeping Flas I have a library representing a lifetime(okay maybe more like one year) of captivate files. I just want to know that when I put them in the SVN repository I'm going to be okay retrieving them.

PS. Going to be reading up on diffs tonight!

Hi Mani,
From my experience, the Berkeley DB system is prone to issues (that's
why we only offer the file system option at SourceSecure nowadays). SVN
has no issues with FLAs but make sure your FLA is not open in Flash if
the possibility exists that someone else might have changed it (ie., if
you get a conflict and it's locked in Flash weird things can happen.)
Otherwise, you can't do a *meaningful* diff of FLAs (unless someone has
come out with an FLA-aware diff tool that I'm not aware of -- I know
there was some work on this...) At the end of the day, I treat FLAs as
high-risk and try to keep as much out of them as possible (Flex makes
this very easy) :)
Take care,
Aral
