I taught a bucket to speak git

What happens if I just point a git server at an object storage bucket? Back when I was porting agent sandboxes to Go, I built everything on top of billy, a filesystem abstraction for Go. The whole trick of the project was teaching a Tigris bucket to act enough like a filesystem that a shell interpreter and its tools couldn’t tell the difference. Billy was the key layer that made the entire façade fall into place. After I had gotten things working, I learned that I’m using billy way outside its normal usecase. It was originally made for go-git, a pure-Go implementation of git’s protocols and data formats. It doesn’t rely on the /usr/bin/git binary existing at all. Every method on billy’s filesystem interface exists purely because go-git needs it. This gave me a terrible idea: I already have a bucket that can quack like a filesystem and go-git’s native language is “filesystem”. Can this Just Work™? Let's find out. Git was always an object store If you strip away the porcelain, a git…
