Okay, there's something I have been thinking about recently. Is it possible to somehow make Git use the Content Defined Chunking algorithm from rsync? Maybe somehow using clean/smudge? If not git, then maybe Mercurial, Fossil or any other DVCS?
This would help with large binary assets without having to deal with the mess that is LFS, as long as the assets were uncompressed.
- hanwenn 1y agoIIRC it already uses content defined chunking for finding object deltas.
