GitBlox
Use IPFS as a storage mechanism for git repositories. Part of this effort will be a decentralized compute architecture to handle the git smart protocol responsible for packfiles.
Project Description
Created a git remote helper which stores hooks into git actions and stores git repository data on IPFS. Additionally created terraform infrastructure-as-code for deploying git servers and IPFS nodes to Amazon Web Services. As of now it is acting a secondary backup for git repositories to IPFS.
How it's Made
Created a git remote helper written in golang using https://github.com/go-git/go-git and https://github.com/ipfs/kubo. The git remote helper hooks into git actions and stores git repository data on IPFS. We have started down the path of using https://fluence.network/ for a decentralized layer for handling task such as pushing git packfiles to IPFS.
