Ugh, you said the gdm word. You are right, it is no fun. If git had
had everything needed to become the "killer" versioning system for
Cadence, I would have taken the effort, but as usual, there are some
small bits and pieces that do not quite comply, and that is probably
why nobody has taken the effort to integrate cvs into Cadence during
all the years cvs has existed.

Thanks for your input.

What do we learn from this? Proprietary binary storage formats are no-no.
