Actually, that's the way that git deals with **all** files (it keeps a full 
copy of every revision).  So I'm sure you'd argue that git doesn't deal well 
with **any** files.

git can be viewed as a filesystem with versioning.  It's not designed like 
an "traditional" VCS system, it's just turned into one.
