I'm wondering how easy the addition of hashing to the directories of the objects would be.
Currently a tree directory structure becomes a flat two level tree under the .git/annex/objects directory ([[internals]]). This, through the 555 mode on the directory prevents the accidental destruction of content, which is _good_. However file and directory numbers soon add up in there and as such any file-systems with sub directory limitations will quickly realize the limit (certainly quicker than maybe expected).
Suggestion is therefore to change from
`.git/annex/objects/SHA1:123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef012345678/SHA1:123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef012345678`
to
`.git/annex/objects/SHA1:1/2/3456789abcdef0123456789abcdef012345678/SHA1:123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef012345678`
or anything in between to a paranoid
`.git/annex/objects/SHA1:123/456/789/abc/def/012/345/678/9ab/cde/f01/234/5678/SHA1:123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef012345678`
Also the use of a colon specifically breaks FAT32 ([[bugs/fat_support]]), must it be a colon or could an extra directory be used? i.e. `.git/annex/objects/SHA1/*/...`
