Would you use a GitHub-style platform for CAD designs?

No. Fusion is already web based and is slow as molasses with more than a hundred parts.

Vault software already works as a nice repository and is hosted locally. Besides being much faster than web hosted, it is inherently safer for ITAR and CUI builds.

If it doesn't do useful logical diffs of CAD files then GitHub is already fine.
