Question about some internals

[Nicolai Kamenzky <ka...@inf.fu-berlin.de>]

Hi Subversion-team!

I'm wondering about what data Subversion saves of a file with several  
versions.
(I mean the underlying versioning file system...)

For example we have version 1.0 through 1.5. For each version there  
has to be
some saved data.
Which of those are the complete file and which are only deltas?

I would save version 1.0 as the complete file and version 1.1 through  
1.5 as deltas
of 1.0 and 1.x. Bad idea isn't it? ;)

Regards,
Nicolai
