I did not know. Indeed, it could be a nice GSoC to implement > some =E2=80=98git-annex-backend-nar=E2=80=99. :-) I=E2=80=99ve written a special remote in Guile. If anyone wants to do so, = the following file might help. It implements the basic protocol. https://git.ngyro.com/git-annex-remote-clouda/tree/git-annex-remote-clouda/= remote.scm More generally, I=E2=80=99m a fan of git-annex. The basic idea is both goo= d and simple: manage content-addressed, external references in a Git repo. My biggest complaint is that the interface and its many features often obscure this simplicity. -- Tim
