Some folks have built other software on top of git-annex, or that is designed to interoperate with it. * The [[git-annex assistant|assistant]] is included in git-annex, and extends its use cases into new territory. * [git-annex-watcher](https://github.com/rubiojr/git-annex-watcher) is a status icon for your desktop. * [[forum/gadu_-_git-annex_disk_usage]] is a du like utility that is git-annex aware. * [sizes](http://hackage.haskell.org/package/sizes) is another du-like utility, with a `-A` switch that enables git-annex support. * Emacs Org mode can auto-commit attached files to git-annex. * [git annex darktable integration](https://github.com/xxv/darktable-git-annex) * [Magit](http://github.com/magit/magit), an Emacs mode for Git, has [an extension](https://github.com/magit/magit-annex) for git annex. * [DataLad](http://datalad.org/) uses git-annex to provide access to scientific data available from various sources. * The [Baobáxia](https://github.com/RedeMocambos/baobaxia) project built by the Brazilian [Mocambos network](http://www.mocambos.net/) is [using git-annex to connect isolated communities](http://www.modspil.dk/itpolitik/baob_xia.html).
