commitcloud

commit cloud is a fastapi service that uses github commits as a storage backend. users authenticate with a username and pat; file bytes (and metadata) are encoded into commits across designated repositories, with chunking for large files.

python · fastapi · pygithub

## highlights

• upload/download flows that encode and decode file payloads via commits.
• pat-based auth against user-controlled repos.
• large files split across commits; metadata separated from content repos.
• simple html front door plus json api for list/upload/download operations.

## outcomes

• - working proof that git history can be abused productively as an object store.
• - clear api surface for experimentation (list commits, upload, download).
