alt Hacker News> Git is fine for text based files like code, but it's really bad at stuff like textures, 3D models, audio files, and other non-text files that game developers need to collaborate on.
How well does Mercurial work in this situation (or even Subversion, given that Perforce is non-distributed like SVN)?
Mercurial is a bit better, but not by much it had slightly better large file support historically but I wouldn't recommend it.
