The concept of tracking changes, branches, history & blame are pretty universal across different domains and should apply well.

The smallest unit of change in Git is a line (correct me on that), which doesn't work well with something as simple as a text document. E.g. collaboratively working on a ReadMe file on GitHub is quite cumbersome compared to Google Docs or MS Word.

Git is no more than a versioned file repo for CAD or vector files.

It's a reasonable question, though.
