Good idea to keep all files in Subversion?

Hi,

Currently I have all my files on a network drive in separate folders for each version and for each language. Something like this:

950.8000D

- 1.0

- 2.0

950.8000E

- 1.0

- 2.0

etc.

In the version folders I have a graphics folder with all graphics files of the FM files of this version.

And when I make more changes, I keep a backup of this draft.

With Corona I am 80 % of the week in home office. Therefore I work on a local copy and upload everything to the server in the evening.

Now the head of our IT department suggested to keep all my files in Subversion and not on the network drive. (Only suggestion, no pressure yet.) I would not make any difs and I do not plan to use any CMS connector or WebDAV. However, of course I would have a new version each day I touch a file.

What's your oppinion? Is this just a massive overhead? Extremely slowly? Or better? Why?

Best regards

Winfried
