Hi,

Use case: I would like to have a "Public" top-level directory in my annex, which gets files in there published over HTTP on a particular server.

How I see doing this:

  1. Put my annex to an http server with exported-over-http /Public/ directory.
  2. Configure a post-update hook with the following:

     $ git annex fix
    
  3. Push files on /Public/ to that annex.

Does it make sense? If yes, are there any gotchas I should beware of?

Thanks.

I see no need for git annex fix here.

Web server default configurations may not allow following symlinks outside the web server document root. On apache, it can be enabled with Options FollowSymLinks
