Fossil considers files to be "binary" if they contain the character '\000'
if they contain one or more lines that are longer than 8192 bytes.

Fossil is unable to do a line-by-line diff of files that are "binary"
(according to the diffinition above) and hence cannot merge such files.
There is no way to "tell" Fossil to treat "binary" files as text.  It
refuses to merge such files because it does not know now to.
