## related ideas
A couple ideas for possible things that could also be done with git-lfs
integration. Just to keep in mind while implementing the above.
* git-annex could support git-lfs pointer files. This would let a lfs
repo be cloned and git-annex used to manage the files in it with the
finer control it allows compared to git-lfs.
* A lfs API endpoint could serve out of a git-annex repository.
One neat thing this would allow is, when git-annex knows an url
where an object is located (from the web special remote or another
special remote that registers an url), it could direct the lfs
client to that url when it requests to download the object.
