I'm right there with you. I once tried managing ableton projects via git. Was a dream from a simplicity standpoint but was not effective in the long run. I don't remember why it didn't end up working well but I abandoned it shortly after trying it the first time. Something like this in modern DAWs would be incredible.

if files are getting managed by blobs, git doesn't really scale well with that since it stores diffs.

`bup` notionally does this a lot better, or git-lfs.

git really needs textual representation for any kind of meaningful commit, and binaries totally break that.

This is precisely what git does NOT do.
