My experience with MIF is that for the purposes of source code control
it is the worst of both ascii and binary. MIF files may be ASCII but
they are really huge, and a significant part of the file is different
between saves in FM even if you only make small changes. Which means
that you still don't get meaningful diffs out of them but you do get
the same overhead. Bah,
