CVS has a (badly documented) feature known as 'wrappers' which allows
you to control the way files are handled suring CVS operations.  One of
the things you can control is the way files are merged.

Wrappers are configured in the cvswrappers file in CVSROOT within a CVS
repository.  To specify that JARs, ZIPs and EXEs should be treated as
binary, you would do something like this:

*.jar -k 'b'
*.zip -k 'b'
*.exe -k 'b'

HTH.
