Interesting article, might be nice to do the same for Bazaar, if possible...

Using Subversion for graphic design files and other binary assets 
<http://subversion.wandisco.com/component/content/article/1/32.html>

Is Bazaar efficient with binary files? (storing diffs of binary doesn't seem that 
efficient anyway, even more when binary is compressed, ie. almost random).

Not convinced by "central dev" and "locking files" argument.
Amused by "create branch where assets are" improvement...

For the record, Perforce's merge tool is able to diff images and highlight where the 
differences are. I wonder if there are other similar diff tools.
