- avar 1y agoThanks, also not-so-relevant, for the reasons I noted in a comment in that thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44922405 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44922405 I.e. annex is really in a different problem space than "big files in git", despite the obvious overlap. A good way to think about it is that git-annex is sort of a git-native and distributed solution to the storage problem at the "other side" ("server side") of something like LFS, and to reason about it from there.
