+This works with bind-mount, I might try with softlinks as well.

+Going through git's data on push/pull can take ages on a spindle disk even if the repo is rather small in size. This is especially true if you are used to ssd speeds, but ssd storage is expensive. Storing the annex objects on a cheap spindle disk and everything else on a ssd makes things a _lot_ faster.

+As git annex keeps logs about file transfers anyway, it should be relatively easy to add traffic accounting to a repo. That would allow me to monitor how much traffic a given repo creates. As I might end up hosting git-annex repos for a few personal friends, I need/want a way to track the heavy hitters. -- RichiH
