When a file is annexed, a key is generated from its content and/or metadata.

Multiple pluggable key-value backends are supported, and a single repository
can use different ones for different files.

@Ilya, indeed, this page is talking about filesystem metadata.
I've updated it for clarity.
There is not currently a way to switch backend based on file size,
although you can use annex.largefiles to make it check eg smaller files
directly into git rather than annexing them.
