So if I have large (1GB+) files in my repo, you recommend against git-fat?

I have been enjoying the simplicity of git-fat, but running git diff and especially git grep makes me think I should switch to something else.

As someone who worked on it a lot, I'd say it'd be worth it to switch to git-lfs. Exactly the same designs with different formats but written in golang.
