Re: Storing Large Flat Namespaces

I'm investigating the possibility of using Git to store a large flat
namespace. As an example, imagine a single directory containing
thousands or millions of files, each named using a 16-byte guid,
evenly distributed.
I realize that an obvious suggestion may be to figure out if there is a way to 
leverage the internal structure of the files to create a more Git-friendly tree 
layout.

Unfortunately the internal structure is largely opaque to me, and highly 
dynamic.

Thanks,

Jaap
