This seems interesting to me from the perspective of being able to securely & incrementally back up a media collection to a cloud storage provider (S3, etc) without fear of it being scanned for copyrighted content, a la Dropbox. There are probably solutions out there to do this already; I'm just not aware of them.

Very interesting article, and well-written walkthrough.

That's the reason I wrote this for myself, and why I made https://filegrave.com, as I thought it could be useful to others as well.

Git is already a great tool with a workflow for handling incremental updates that I happen to be used to working with, so there was no need to reinvent the wheel.
