git - does it work on image?

Question

im actually working with git, i add without problem the entire directory where i'm building the website. how git treat the images?

Answer 1

As binary files. WARNING: it can't automatically merge this files.

Answer 2

Source control software can treat binary files just fine, but some of the magic will not work for it. The main limitation is you cannot merge conflicts automatically. Additionally, you cannot acquire locks on files in Git, so conflicts will eventually happen and they will have to be manually resolved before a push can take place.
