actually, since git does the compression itself, the answer is to have git uncompress the documents and version the uncompressed data. then when you check it out git assembles the version you want, then compresses it as you check it out.

you can even insert XML aware diff engines if you want.

Yes indeed. 'man gitattributes' and search for 'filter' for something that may help here.
