Although blob storage work well for versioning, you have to make heavy use of the underlying proprietary API to get these versions, and I am not quite sure you can do more complex operations, like diff and bisect between those versions the way you could with git.

Because git excels in relatively small size text files and patching and difficult. You can't binary blobs like jpegs, audio, video easily.
