RCS adopts a reverse delta approach for storing multiple versions of a file. For example, assume a file has three revisions—1.1, 1.2, and 1.3. RCS stores the file as of version 1.3, then the differences between 1.2 and 1.3, and finally the differences between 1.1 and 1.2. When a new version is created, say 1.4, the difference between 1.3 and 1.4 is computed and stored, and the 1.3 version is deleted and replaced by 1.4. Explain why RCS does not simply store the initial version (in this case 1.1) and the differences between each successive version.
