This is definitely what we did with .FMT, .MMT and .PLL files. Beware that .FMT files are huge: for instance, 4 Mb for a let's say 15 windows application.
We used at first SCCS (very common in Unix environment) and now ClearCase (more serious in fact).
This is working but takes a lot of time. Furthermore, do not hope to provide any significant 'DIFF' on .FMT files. This works well though for .PLL files (libraries).

Hope this help

Mathieu
