Images and compressed files are not diffed. So if I update Mirrors-htdig.tgz
then nobody can see what I have changed in the instructions inside ;) Well,
it is a problem for this case, this is why I would like to move the
instructions
to mirroring-htdig.php and mirroring-stats.php respectiely for the two
services. But thats another question :)

So cvswrappers defines what files are binary files (not to be diffed). I
have
added *.bz2, *.zip and *.tar now, so it probably won't be a problem to
remove
the lines from "commitinfo" and mail distributions commits again.

| # The next two lines prevent massive cvs commit messages from being

| .*distributions.* /bin/true

Though I am not sure what effects will this have, so I don't do that :)
But I would like to see commit messages for distributions on php-mirrors
(without diffs ;).

Maybe... This is offtrack now...
