Solve binary file limitations for decentralized management of brand identity

[jcklpe]

Originally this repo was meant to be not just a starter kit for branding identity but to actually be a living implementation of design working in a decentralized fashion through git.

This turns out to be actually kind of hard because of the binary file size limitations of git (even when taking into account things like LFS).

So there needs to be a better solution. This issue thread is for discussing tools for solving this problem.

Kactus.io is a promising git based source control tool for design work. Would still run into the file issues, but it at least provides a UI for perhaps solving this issue.

Currently I use nextcloud for personal cloud file storage. This is a great solution overall but it lacks the decentralized aspect. If a design repo is put on a cloud server and that server goes down, or the person running the server leaves, then the project disappears and bottlenecked resources. The purpose of building things in a decentralized way is to make them more anti-fragile. Centralized server repos are not anti-fragile in that way.

So is there a better solution?
