Hang on. Why do you assume that if someone has big files, then

Sure,
that's exactly kfogel's use-case (described upthread), but it's
not the
only way to structure a repository.
FYI, that's not our company's use case.
In fact, we have large non-diffable files spread all over in many
directories, and we have small-texty-diffable files also spread
out over many directories, and both kinds of file often co-exist
within the same directory.
Just correcting the record -- I don't think this one particular
use case
is necessarily definitive for the feature or anything. I just
wanted to make sure that you have accurate information.
