"""]] ### Have you had any luck using git-annex before? (Sometimes we get tired of reading bug reports all day and a lil' positive end note does wonders) I've been using git-annex for 1.5 years to manage bioinformatics analyses. It's a very versatile and well-designed tool. I've been able to adapt it to many use cases; the ability to easily write your own external backends has been especially helpful for that. The amount of work and thought that has gone into designing/building git-annex is enormous, and very much appreciated. > [[done]]; see comment --[[Joey]]
