Not all version controlled files can be merged. That’s fine. Git sucks at working with large binary files. Perforce does not. Therefore all game devs use Perforce. A theoretical Git2 could provide Perforce-tier support for large binary files. But, imho, this would likely require dropping the D in DVCS. I would gladly trade distributed for large binary file support. Without even a moment’s hesitation. Other people wouldn’t. But I wouldn’t call their use case “bad”. Git is rubbish for my needs. It’s rubbish for a lot of needs. It’s ok at some things. Mercurial is much better at those things though.
