One of the points of design in subversion is that it uses a binary differencing algorithm. It does so so that it can store binary files efficiently. CVS, as far as I can tell, has to store the whole file each time you change a binary file. Not so with subversion.

Feel the white light, the light within
Be your own disciple, fan the sparks of will
For all of us waiting, your kingdom will come
