Maintain SQL dump of the database in git #4

As the MS access Database file is in binary format, it will be better to use a SQL dump to log to log all the changes. However, maintaining a binary format is necessary for ease of development. Any Ideas how approach this better ?

We could always make the database while installation ? Or on the first run. Maybe give this feature for the user to select. But this could come a lot later and not now, preferring to keep binary database file for now along with SQL dump.

MS access database binary file is providing conflicts, keeping a dump version of the database(only the design part) if it is plausible in the history of the commits (requires re-base).
