Implementing a hard limit concurrently isn't feasible but only providing a best-effort target size would still be useful.
It should fully work in all non-concurrent use-cases which are the majority in my case.
This would also open up the possibility of allowing me to know which drive I need to plug in when there is new data to be backed up because git-annex would know how much a repo is able to store and how much it currently holds.
This obviously isn't perfect either (there might be other data on that drive; other annex repos or entirely untracked data for example) but it'd still be good enough to make a manual decision on for me.
