So, what are all these files doing in this database? The scheme is
fairly simple. In the `.rvs' directory there is 1 directory, the
- `files' directory. There used to be a folder for tempfiles (0.5.8-

- FILENAME=`tempfile`

+ 0.6.2), but no more (0.6.3+). If you need a tmpfile, just run:
+ FILENAME=$(mktemp -t)
The `files' directory is where all the data is kept.
When any file is committed, whether it be a regular file, a
