OOC, how much of the complexity for implementing this was getting the data out of the formats, and how much was implementing the diff once you had the data?

Yeah, except that this is not really built into Git. You can't get detailed differences or merge differences in these large files. They are basically opaque blobs as far as Git is concerned.

Any kind. JSON or XML could be input. Or things like SQL or protobufs.
Git itself doesn't work well for large-scale data (https://help.github.com/articles/what-is-my-disk-quota/). I'm thinking terabyte or petabyte datasets.
