Misc - Keeping Your Life in Subversion

"I keep my life in a Subversion repository.
For the past five years, I've checked every file I've created and worked on, every email I've sent or received, and every config file I've tweaked into revision control. Five years ago, when I started doing this using CVS, people thought I was nuts to use revision control in this way. Today it's still not a common practice, but [...] I know I'm not alone. In this article I will describe how my new home directory setup is working now that I've switched from CVS to Subversion."
