What useful history can you possibly get when each file is only ever
substantively changed by publishing another file?

The benefits git would bring are history and reduced badwidth per pull
when updating.

The latter, of course, is only really relevant when the daily pull is
done over a low-bandwidth link.  (The impact of the cron job was very
noticeable over a DS0; it is not at all noticeable over doccis.)
