karissa: that git lfs post is pretty crazy, didn't realize how tight the bandwidth limits were

did I see somewhere that you can push/pull dat repositories to amazon S3?
or was that just a 'nice to have' that someone mentioned in passing?

flyingzumwalt: theres an abstract-blob-store module for s3, but we dont have push/pull working
flyingzumwalt
ogd ah. so that would be using s3 to store blobs but not the whole dat repo. Cool.

flyingzumwalt: right. we currently have a requirement that there needs to be a node process running on both sides to walk the graph in order to do replication. on our list of thigns to figure out is if we can support a constrained set of operations with a flat file repository

that's cool. I'm just looking at using s3fs to mount s3 buckets as directories on the local fs and then store dat repositories in those buckets-as-mounted-drives. It occurred to me to check if there is a way to push directly to s3 and skip that step of mounting with s3fs. The requirement of a node process makes sense though.
