ch.8 pp.157-158 discussion about large binary files in version control systems. Large binary files can’t be stored as incremental diffs, which slows down version control operations. The book has it in a context of 3rd party libraries, although this would apply to binary CAD and EDA files too. The book proposes a schemes where VCS knows library version and enforces compatibility without storing the binary (p.158).
