Agreed, assuming SVG images that include binary stuff are
excluded too.
Apparently we only have one such SVG (greeter-flow.svg) in the
blueprints directory, so it seems to me that forbidding them would not
harm a common use case, right?
For the record, here are some stats on what one can currently find in
the blueprints directory:
* all SVG images, tar.bz2'd: 222K
* all SVG images except greeter-flow.svg, tar.bz2'd: 62K
* all .fodg and .ods files, .tar.bz2'd: 57K
=> which tends to confirm that text files such as XML and ODS
are not too much of a concern, at least until the next UX sprint ;)
(I've tar.bz2'd these things, since what matters isn't the size of
each individual file, but rather how much space it takes in `.git'.)
