+Thanks for this feature. It will save a lot of space when working on one-off projects with big scientific datasets.
+
+Unfortunately, there is probably no easy solution to achieve similar savings across file systems. On our shared cluster individual labs have their data in separate ZFS volumes (to ease individual backup handling), but data is often shared (i.e. copied) across volumes when cloning an annex. We need expensive de-duplication on the backup-server to, at least, prevent this kind of waste to hit the backups -- but the master file server still suffers (de-duplication ratio sometimes approaching a factor of 2.0).

+I understand that the copy of the cellphones' photos are stored on the server too, when typing git annex whereis <photo> I see that it exists on the server, but I need to be able to, at will copy out the jpg files for editing and using in other places.

+I don't know if this is what Jack wanted, but you can upload your files to S3 and let them be accessible through a public URL.
+
+First, go to (or create) the bucket you will use at [S3](https://console.aws.amazon.com/s3/) and add a public get policy to it:
+
+```
+ {
+ \"Version\": \"2008-10-17\",
+ \"Statement\": [
+ {
+ \"Sid\": \"AllowPublicRead\",
+ \"Effect\": \"Allow\",
+ \"Principal\": {
+ \"AWS\": \"*\"
+ },
+ \"Action\": \"s3:GetObject\",
+ \"Resource\": \"arn:aws:s3:::BUCKETNAME/*\"
+ }
+ ]
+ }
+```
+
+Then set up your special remote with the options `encryption=none`, `bucket='BUCKETNAME'` `chunk=0` (and any others you want).
+
+Your files will be accessible through `http://BUCKETNAME.s3-website-LOCATION.amazonaws.com/KEY` where location is the one specified through the options `datacenter` and KEY is the SHA-SOMETHING hash of the file, created by git annex and accessible if you run `git annex lookupkey FILEPATH`.
+
+This way you can share a link to each file you have at your S3 remote.
