Hello,
I'm still looking for a way to version control the metadata (title, artist, album name, ...) of my MP3s, I wonder if git annex could help for this problem ?
The method I use now (without git annex) is to export the MP3 metadata to an textual format with one line per tag.
It's this textual file I handles with git.
The problem is to handle the mapping between the orignal file and the export file with file renaming or moving.
I consider to use the checksum of the audio content (without metadata, this checksum never changes) to handle this problem.
Maybe git annex has a different approach (better) to solve this problem ?
How git annex would be use to solve the orignal problem ?
