On: Announcing Git Large File Storage

[icebraining]

The filter-by-filetype can be replace by small script that augments git: http://git-annex.branchable.com/forum/help_running_git-annex...

Would be nice to replace that with git hooks so you can just use regular git commands. Any idea's if that is feasible?

[icebraining → sytse]

I'm not sure, but I doubt a hook would do. An alternative would be to have a frontend script to git that would shadow the git command (using shell aliases) and call git-annex when appropriate.

Yeah, I don't like shell aliases but it would work. I wonder how the LFS client works.
