That one is a bit more tricky. The big advantage git has here is that the update of a blob is not different from other updates. It is just a pull request. Keeping source+binaries in sync is easy too: we can update submodule hash + blobs with a single git commit.
FWIW I find the binaries in git to be a PITA. I submitted a patch in January to fix the VGA BIOS but it's still broken in git. The one installed in /usr/share/qemu is fine, but whenever I build qemu from git I have to remember to *remove* the one in the git tree or it uses that instead...
