    the above line is a CVS tag. CVS is fine for plain text documents,
    and mostly source code, because it's line based.

    if you want something for management, you might be better with a SVN
    server accessed over WebDAV (I don't exactly keep up with
    Subversion's development, so this might not be available just yet).
