> Just wondering how you deal with all the extra noise in the diff. What happens when multiple people are working on the project, are you not constantly having to deal with merge conflicts? I feel like checking in the build directory makes the diffs pretty much useless.

Why would you ever bother merging a build artifact? Those files should always be rebuilt fresh before committing. Just quickly do whatever to clear it from the conflict queue, merge the source as necessary, then rebuild. Commit the rebuilt version.
