Yea, scripts that push them to S3 is exactly what I'd be looking for.  I 
have our box.com drive mounted on the gitlab server(/media/box/) through 
davfs2 so the other option would be just to move the large binary files to 
that drive.  Could this be problematic you think or would it be just the 
same as pushing it to S3?  We pay for the Box space so may as well use it I 
figure.
