Obviously. Hence our append-only design. Data that's written to a repo
is never rewritten, which minimizes exposure to software bugs and I/O
errors.

By the way, RCS / CVS rewrote relevant data (to have diff from the top
structure) on each commit.

I wonder if git could generate pack on the fly fastimport like...

What do you mean with that?  generate the pack on which occasion?  CVS import?  I do this already.
