These two are pcap files of single-line edits to the same file: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1.3M 2008-08-29 11:54 /tmp/git -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 40K 2008-08-29 11:53 /tmp/svn > It's been too long since I've looked at the SVN TxDelta API, but I > thought SVN::TxDelta::apply would take care of the delta computation for > us...
