What Git *might* have problems with is large un-deltable binary files; there are however third party tools that try to deal with this problem, like git-annex, or git-media (git-bigfiles fork is dead IIRC). You can [probably] find more information on tools page of Git Wiki... when it will be up. HTH --=20 Jakub Nar=EAbski
