\"it would be better if files already in git were not annexed even if they match annex.largefiles\" -- actually not sure: what if a file was in git but gets modified to something _much_ larger? If you have \"a few files just a bit larger\" than your `annex.largefiles` setting, maybe just increase that setting? You could also set `annex.gitaddtoannex=false` to prevent `git add` from annexing previously non-annexed files, and use `git annex add` to annex new files.
Also, if goal is compatibility with v5, you can lock files after annexing. If [[todo/auto-lock_files_after_one_edit]] gets implemented at some point, that could also help this case.
