I am not familiar with the file format used in HDF5, but I am wondering if HDF5 files are suitable for revision control with git (or for example Mercurial or Subversion)? I guess what I mean is: are HDF5 files suitable for line-based diff'ing or will git have to treat an HDF5 as one big binary and store an entire copy for each revision?
Are HDF5 files suitable for git revision control?
