I would like to store Simulink models in a Git

Is there a way to teach Git to take advantage of this when storing,
diff-ing and merging these files?
you should be able to use clean/smudge to have git store the files uncompressed, 
which will help a lot.

I think there's a way to tell it to do a xml aware diff/patch, but I don't 
remember how.
