Why would he have an issue with running > "git annex get"? I don't have anything against it, but in OP he also talks about implementing something similar for ox-$BACKEND output... Which doesn’t seem like a bad request. Why should org-attachment support git-annex other parts of Org not? But I don’t think we want to support annexed files in general. (What about LFS’ed files? Assuming a similar feature exists) Perhaps I’m abstracting too much here. Rasmus -- Even a three-legged dog has three good legs to lose
