With binary files and git, am I saving all the previous versions in the tree locally (which could get huge fast), or just the diffs?

- pilif 11y agoBinary diffs. But depending on the file, it might not really be of much help (I know for a fact that Adobe premiere projects for example are nearly completely different every time you save).
- emielvl 11y agoFolio uses git internally and as such is based on binary diffs. To tackle the issue of an ever-growing repository, we're looking into integrating git-lfs which supports offloading blobs from the repository.
- billconan 11y agoSo is there a way to achieve collaboration? if this is based on binary diffs, can we still have merging?
