Perhaps git-global-graph is a decent name. GGG? G3? :). The structure
right now in my head looks a bit like:
Global Graph:
client - post-commit git hooks to push changes up to the GG

Regarding integration into LFS, I'd like to build the library in such
a way that it would easy to bundle with LFS (so they could share the
same git hooks), but also make it flexible enough to work for other
workflows.

I've been putting together a prototype file-locking implementation for
a system that plays better with git. What are everyone's thoughts on
something like the following? I'm tentatively labeling this system
git-sync or sync-server. There are two pieces:
1. A centralized repository called the Globa

Thanks for all the thoughts so far -- I'm going to try to collate some
of my responses to avoid this getting too lengthy.
## Regarding Merging / Diffing
A couple of folks have suggested that we could improve merging /
diffing of binary files in general. I think this is useful, but can

Hey Taylor,
Great to have your support! I think LFS has done a great job so far
solving the large file issue. I've been working myself on strategies
for handling binary conflicts, and particularly how to do it in a
