   While P4 doesn't do binary diffs, they do support compression (gzip),
which works reasonably well on most data (exception: hauge WAV files).

   It would be nice if they supported some sort of xdelta-like diff =
storage
instead, but it seems like it's not a massive issue nowadays when huge
drives are cheap.
