Unfortunately, my application is designed to persist binary requests and responses, so the file format is also binary. Encoding it to a text format is not ideal as it would increase the file size drastically. This is a big barrier and I do not have a concrete direction yet to make collaboration possible in a transparent and easy way.



Can't you store the connection metadata (like a curl request) in plaintext, but binary blobs in git lfs or similar?


Thanks for the suggestion. It seems only plaintext information is interested in most use cases, so this might work. I will consider this solution.
