Let's imagine, you start translating mysql.xml. This is not
a small file, so you can't complete it in a day. You copy
the mysql.xml file yourself to a separate directory, as
you probably won't follow the modifications in the mysql.xml
file as you translate, because the translation takes weeks.
One week later, when you again have time to translate, you can
see the $Revision tag in the copied english file, while the
one in CVS is newer, so your point of what you are translating
would be lost.
Erm... you can copy the revision to a text file, and store it
with the temporary english copy and the translated file, but
this way is much more convinient.
