    <p>git-annex allows managing large files with git, without storing the file contents in git. It can sync,
    backup, and archive your data, offline and online. Checksums and encryption keep your data safe and secure.
    Bring the power and distributed nature of git to bear on your large files with git-annex. It can store
    large files in many places, from local hard drives, to a large number of cloud storage services, including
    S3, WebDAV, and rsync, with dozens of cloud storage providers usable via plugins. Files can be stored
    encrypted with gpg, so that the cloud storage provider cannot see your data. git-annex keeps track of
    where each file is stored, so it knows how many copies are available, and has many facilities to ensure
    your data is preserved. git-annex can also be used to keep a folder in sync between computers, noticing
    when files are changed, and automatically committing them to git and transferring them to other computers.
    The git-annex webapp makes it easy to set up and use git-annex this way.</p>
