@CoreyFloyd Of course they'll convert to plain text! That's what git is for!

| Oct 7, 2009 at 15:56 | comment | added | Corey Floyd | So the objects (specifically commit objects) won't convert to plain text? | |
| Oct 7, 2009 at 15:38 | comment | added | Cascabel | These files are inherently not plain-text, and to view them as such, you need a program which converts them from their format into text. Git is a program with components designed to do precisely that. I would be extremely surprised if anyone has written another one. | |
