Git isn’t very good with large binary files, git blame doubly so.

Good point. I’d hope that there is some equivalent version control though.

I think perforce is mostly used. There certainly should be a changelog but no text diff really.

There is git lfs as mentioned, and other systems like perforce support binaries too, but generally assets like those aren’t under the same kind of version control because they don’t change as frequently, aren’t worked on by multiple people, and can’t be diffed.

I think git lfs is a pretty well accepted tool for managing big files in git.
