When syncing with a huge git annex repository on usb disk, my small laptop partition runs out of inodes.
Any workaround for this?
- Use bare repository?
Some git annex command are not supported.
This makes managing (particularly adding) files difficult.
- Use a loop file partition with tiny block size and large inode numbers?
Operations on a huge git repository are slow.
On a loop file partition will be slower.
- Maybe shrink the partition and make room for a specific partition for git annex repository?
Any opinions?
