Maybe these things could help:

- to treat an extension as binary do a right-click on e.g. a foo.zip  
and select 'Treat Files with "*.zip" Extension as Binary'

or

- select the root of your project, press ⌘+I, and insert in the text  
field 'File Patterns' under 'Recursively Include Contents  
Matching': !.zip (do not show files with the extension 'zip')
