SubVersion can handle such big files just fine. I have 256MB files in our
repository.

It also handles storing the differences of these files quite efficiently,
granted that not every byte of the file changed :-) This means: if you paln
to edit these files it's better NOT to compress them when storing them in
SubVersion.
