Hey, I have two points to add about Git.
-
many don’t know about it, but you can also host a Git repository on Azure Devops. There you have no limitations on Git LFS space, and it’s free for teams up to 5 people.
-
regarding the local storage issue. We use Anchorpoint as our Git client. It supports sparse checkout, which allows you to check out only certain folders in your repository. For example, you can leave your Blender files in the repo, but not download them if you don’t need them.
If you want to delete old versions, you can do that by deleting a folder and checking it out again. Then it will download only the last version from the server and not the complete history. This is a little bit cumbersome but it works.
Here in the picture I joined the repository but I didn’t download any files. When I click on the cloud icon, it does a folder checkout and also downloads only the latest version.
