Description

The commit logic works by computing a delta against BASE and then uploading that, unless the full file is smaller than the delta.

However, the user may have a large file that's known to them to be not amenable to binary diffs. In this case it might be beneficial to let the user instruct us not to try and compute a delta against BASE at all.

This is related to SVN-525 but, strictly speaking, is independent of it.
