We already have core.bigFileThreshold, which can be used to determine
storage type (traditional one with zlib, or some fancy ones for big
files). If that's not enough, .gitattributes can be used to mark
certain files as 'big'.

See below link for recent discussions regarding big file support:

http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/165389/focus=168956

On the store of big files, bup (at github) model might fit in as well
if large files change a small portion regularly.
