Git annex recipes

This talk will be a survey of various recipes I have come up with for git-annex. This includes 1) Discussion of git-annex as a format and it’s implications 2) usage of git-annex for collaborative mirroring of non-scientific datasets 3) Using git-annex for system administrative purposes, including integration with Gentoo portage 4) Techniques for handling large numbers of keys by reconstructing subset repos and 5) Leveraging BTRFS for transferring data outside of git-annex.
