Ok, fair enough. It's your project, and you are defining "source control" as that which git supports: non-binary, line-by-line text only, C, bash .. no images, documents, etc.
I only wish that definition of "source" had been more clear from the get-go.
Perhaps a front and center blurb on the git home page or mission statement might clarify things for those of us who have different definitions of "source"? That way, you wouldn't have to be bothered by folks trying to version all their project assets with git. For example, you could specify that non-text is out of scope for git, (or however you wish to define "source").
