Yea i actually wrote my own file chunking and general git-lfs-like backend for this exact reason. I liked Git LFS, but Github's pricing felt insane for my indie dev. For my needs i could backup onto a local server, network drive, or w/e at an insanely cheaper price.

Hell even uploading to an S3 compatible API was insanely cheaper than Github.

That and i really hated the feeling that Git LFS was being designed for a server architecture. I didn't have an easy way to locally dump the written files without running an HTTP server.

There are a couple Git LFS servers that upload to, say, S3 - but i really just wanted a dumb FS or SSH dump of my LFS files. Running a localhost server feels so.. anti-Git to me.

Do you have a repo for it?

I do, but i'm not comfortable sharing it. It's an experimental project, very new, and not polished enough for general use. A POC if you will. Plus this is an anonymous account :P

While i was writing it i found the basic process of basic large file storage to be insanely simple with Git. I debated doing the same thing but backed by a seasoned backup solution, like Borg/Bup/etc.
