This makes me wish there was a SCM of sorts for fonts so that collaborating on them would be easier.

- edwintorok 12y agoThere is, but it is not clear to me which variant is the "master" font, is it the OTF? https://github.com/mozilla/Fira https://github.com/mozilla/Fira
- mlkmt 12y agoNice, but I didn't mean putting the binary files on git. It's not easy to see changes since the file format is not text based.
- edwintorok 12y agoYeah it'd be nice if they used something like UFO ( http://unifiedfontobject.org/ http://unifiedfontobject.org/), or even Fontforge's SFD. It should be possible to take each binary OTF, export it with fontforge, and create a "mirror" repository where you can see the changes in a more human-readable format.
