I have ideas, I may do that at some point. My instinct is that a diff scheme that took account of intra-line changes as well as block text moves would result in the most compression; and that if that alone didn't, then compressing that diff scheme in the way that the entire revision set currently is, would. The question I haven't delved into is: how difficult would it be to do that and how computation-intensive compared to what is currently done?
Maybe download a dump and try with xdelta ?
