It's a kind of wishlist: bzr should have ability to specify by user what
files is binary. Currently I have some binary files under bzr version
control that does not have '\0' at all inside. As result for this files
showed very long diff. This diff completely non-informative.
I'd like to have ability to specify type of file when it initially added
(as CVS does). I think this sort of info should be saved in inventory
like for executable bit information. Therefore autodetect of binary
files should work only at add phase. All other operations should use
info from inventory when it need to know is this file binary or not.
