Yes it would require a global blob store across reps. That seems like a good design choice.

I don’t know what you mean by “ won't work for version control databases, assuming use of a distributed VCS.”

The .git directory does not contain plain files, so the same files may look different in different .git directories. But yeah, you could make it work if you designed for it.

Yeah Git is super mediocre. But the hypothesis is that you could build something that doesn’t suck!
