This is by no means a perfect match for your requirements, but I'll share a CLI tool I built, called Dud[0]. At the least it may spur some ideas. Dud is meant to be a companion to SCM (e.g. Git) for large files. I was turned off of Git

Thanks for sharing your experience. It's non-trivial and surprising behavior like this that drove me to build a custom system[0] myself. When I started researching version control tools for large files, I remember feeling like git-anne

Maybe not precisely what you want, but I built a CLI tool[1] that's like a simplified and decoupled Git-LFS. It tracks large files in a content-addressed directory, and then you track the references to that store in source control. Dat

I highly recommend the book Kubernetes In Action by Lukša [1]. It's a fantastic walkthrough of the whole containerized stack -- from Docker containers through the Kubernetes API and some info on Kubernetes internals towards the end. Th

Thanks for sharing this. It's very hard to lend credence to this series after reading this follow-up. Quoting from the link: "There are certainly many reasons to hate Go, from the unusual syntax to the half-arsed way they decided

I agree that decoupling from Git has its benefits, and I've built a tool[1] that seems to meet some of your needs above. The idea is to save binary data in a separate content-addressed store and have Git track references to specific fi

I've been working on Dud[1] to help solve this problem. Coincidentally I released v0.2.0 today. The core idea is to version large files/directories in a content-addressed store, and to track the content addresses (i.e. checksums)

Can't agree more with this. I too am a (neo)vim + tmux dev, and I made the same progression in shells. Fish just works out of the box. I actually stopped using autojump (see Better CD in the article) because Fish's context-aware a

This looks very cool! Content addressed storage is an incredibly powerful concept, and weaving it into a programming language is a compelling idea. Question for the devs: How does one deploy Unison code? After my first glance through the do

Dud author here. I built Dud because I love DVC[1], but I wanted something faster and simpler. As I write in the README: If DVC is Django, Dud aims to be Flask. Dud is much faster, it has a smaller feature set, and it is distributed as a si

I built Dud[1] because I wanted a simpler, faster DVC[2]. If DVC is Django, I set out to build Flask. In using Dud myself, I think I've succeeded thus far. But the only way to know for sure is to publicize the project and get it in oth

Absolutely this. Prototyping a project in a new (to you) language/stack only serves one real purpose: to get comfortable in said language/stack. If your goal is to get a working product quickly, with as few hiccups as possible, yo
