[$] Large files with Git: LFS and git-annex

Git does not handle large files very well. While there is
work underway to handle large repositories through the commit
graph work, Git's internal design has remained surprisingly constant
throughout its history, which means that storing large files into Git comes
with a significant and, ultimately, prohibitive performance
cost. Thankfully, other projects are helping Git address this
challenge. This article compares how Git LFS and git-annex address this problem
and should help readers pick the right solution for their needs.
