Hi all,

Anyone putting .ics (vCalendar) and .vcf (vCard) files into version
control? They are normal text files and thus easily diff-able, but the
problem is some clients (like KDE's Kontact/Korganizer) touches and/or
(re)sort entries in the files, making the diff too large and merge
difficult. Haven't found a more suitable client program, I'm thinking
of writing some scripts to post-process and sort the entries before
commit. Or perhaps there are better calendar/addressbook text formats
out there? Suggestions welcome.

Regards,
dave
