Should we allow pictures if the image file format is a text file?
I think we should not. Even if you can open it in a text editor, you
can't "read" it or interact with it in the same way that you can a
text-based patch. For that reason, big size or small size, it still in
essence falls under the 'binary file' criteria and thus should not be
permitted.
1) You can interact with svg files with a text editor if you know what
you are doing. 2) You want your vcs to show the diff in that file and
you can make sense of that diff.
