Back from the holiday, catching up on traffic. Backlog stands at 113
messages.
+Here's a nice tip that Giovanni added:
+[[tips/publishing_your_files_to_the_public]] (using a public S3 bucket)
+
Just before going on break, I added a new feature that I didn't mention
here. `git annex diffdriver` integrates git-annex with git's external diff
driver support. So if you have a smart diff program that can diff, say,
diff --git a/doc/tips/publishing_your_files_to_the_public/comment_1_48f545ce26dbec944f96796ed3b9204d._comment b/doc/tips/publishing_your_files_to_the_public/comment_1_48f545ce26dbec944f96796ed3b9204d._comment

+Thanks Giovanni for that nice tip!
+
+You can additionally publish the whole git repository
+by eg pushing it to github. (Not if it contains private files
+or if you have embedded encryption keys or credentials though.)
+
+You can tell git-annex the public url for the files too, and then others
+can just clone the git repository and use git-annex to download the files
+from S3.
+
+You could set that up by running something like this:
+
+ for filename in $(git annex find --in public-s3); do
+ git annex addurl --file "$filename" https://public-annex.s3.amazonaws.com/"$(git annex lookupkey $filename)"
+ done
