    Messing with ,v files is not dangerous if you are simply copying them.
    The big cost seems to be verifying them.

That is right.  Can someone write a script which can be used
to determine the difference between two ,v files, as a set of
commits plus their log entries?  The script could also check
that the difference consists of material added in one file.
