It’s a known issue that Git doesn’t play nicely with large files, and it’s not just developers who struggle with large files and version control.

Any team that slings code for a living deals with service issues. They know all too well the hated red alert… the dreaded text in the middle of the night… the loathsome ping from a coworker telling them that $#!π just hit the fan.

So, a variant was born called behavior driven development (BDD). Now, organizations could push features quickly with quality AND confidence that they met end user expectations.
