Let me clarify. The binaries can be unity 3d models or other engineering 
assets. They are not compiled code.

For me, subversion still has uses by compelling centralized change
tracking, and by permitting checkouts of very small directories from a
master repo or a designated tag.

Large binaries. just don't put those in source control. Put those
in software packaging.

We are considering using Subversion for a project with large binary files since 
it seems to have some strengths in that area compared to the alternatives. But 
now that the Apache Software Foundation and most other projects such LLVM and 
FreeBSD have migrated away from Subversion, what does the future of Subversion 
look like? Is it still being actively worked on? Is anyone sponsoring it?
