Well, that makes a big difference. Because it's hard to diff things
like OO.org documents, VCSes have a hard time storing their history
without ending up storing a copy of every single revision. If the
files never change, no problem. But if they change a lot, often a
problem.

It sounds like you don't care about the history, but you haven't
really said.
