Re: RFD Use git for off-site backups

Hello,

I think that this setup (have objects remotely) will kill performance
pretty quickly. You have to compare to other blobs in order to find
reasonable deltas...

so true. I thought about that myself just after I sent the eMail.

There has been talk about pre-commit scripts which put this
information into a file, and a post-checkout script to resurrect these
metadata, but I haven't seen functional versions of these scripts yet.

I thought there is a way to add information without loosing compability
with current git versions. But maybe I am just mistaken.
