Subject: [cvsnt] RCS file become too big



We have a binary file added to CVS. Because too many changes and commit operations are made on it, the commit operation now takes about 4 minutes to complete. 

Is there any tool that can be used to get rid of some version record in this file? or how to solve this problem?

Thanks for your help.
