Hey Jim,

Open Source Publishing, a group that came out of Constant, a Brussels based arts collective, have been researching and using versioning systems in graphic design/typography.

In case you don’t speak French, this video is in English:

OSP has specifically focused on what it means to use versioning systems for collaborative work on images rather than on text/code.
They use git, and not github, due to problems with licensing in the latter.

Also see: Libra Graphics Research Unit where much of this experimentation started.

Looking forward to see what you compile.
