Git is terrible for binary files and large files

You say that like SharePoint is any better which OneDrive is a front end for.

    Id say it probably is.
    For single user backing up, archiving, cloud access for binary files... yeh, sharepoint/onedrive probably IS better than git.

    BUT, i say that with 0 experience of using either for that. I use git for text, and i havent had the "pleasure" of onedrive/sharepoint.
    But i have a feeling that onedrive/sharepoint will have an edge over git as a cloud drive system. Even if its just from a tooling/integration standpoint
