It's also because most of the information about a revision is unique to
that revision.  Weave compression most effective when many lines don't
change, but only committer looks like it would be somewhat stable.
Maybe message, if it's frequently blank.

So when you gzip a tar, (or, I expect, a weave) you exploit repetition
of strings like '<parents>' or 'WorkingTree' across revisions.
