> Our guidelines should call out where users need to take special care if they 
> have binary files in their diff. (binary files here means anything {{file}} 
> detects as "data")
> By default {{git diff}} won't include binary files, instead it'll just say 
> something like "binary files differ". That'll render the patch useless.
> * Update reasons to favor format-patch to include "can handle binary files 
> changing by default".
> * Add a note on {{git diff}} (or change the default args) to use {{--binary}}
