[SOLVED] Google Drive's control version system does not work with PDF files ?

[goahead97]

Is there anyway to make Google Drive's control version system work with PDF files?
I tried to link a Google drive folder with ocamlfuse (Cent OS) to a Github repository but then git is extremely slow to do anything.

Do you have any other idea?
Thanks

Is the problem only with .pdf type files or all file types?

As I understand your post the answer is ".pdf" - no harm in verifying.

FYI:

The problem happens with .pdf files but it does not happen with plain text files.

It probably depends on what is inside these PDFs. A lot of PDFs created from text files are no different than a text file - you can open it with Notepad. But many PDFs are binary files, and (probably) Google does not know how to "diff" these files as to show differences.
