Instead of saving things outside of excel to get them saved in a text
format I always dreamed of a pre-commit-hook that works on the fact that
technically a docx file from word or a xlsx file from excel-file is an
ordinary zip archive. to get things like svn:keywords working it would
suffice to
- unpack the zip-archive before committing
- and zip it again using zero compression ( for the command line zip
utility the command- line flags that do this would read "-Z store" or
shorter "-0".
Additionaly setting the compression to zero would mean huge space
savings on the server:
- Subversion internally uses compression for storing files so the
files won't be saved in an uncompressed state on the server
- and subversion only stores the differences between the old and the
new version. If you change just a single word in an uncompressed file
chances are high that the change affects only a single line that
therefore has to be stored on the server.
If the file is compressed, file chances are high instead that
changing a single word in the uncompressed will affect the whole
structure of the result of the compression so subversion will have to
store big portions of a file regardless how efficient it normally is in
handling binary files.
