Git does not support binary files. It assumes that all files under its control are mergeable text.
I'd use something like git-annex or Git LFS for unstructured FrameMaker and image binaries. (It's not currently an issue for me since my doc source is in Confluence and the only files I put in Git are those required by the build process.) Do you really find it useful to diff MIF files very often?
