Was thinking of making a file system notification observer to auto-add changed files to a git index on an external drive or server. Like Time Machine on a micro scale.

It would be handy in a game development context for artists, who often edit scores of assets at a time and chafe at programmer-style version control. Thoughts?

Probably not. Does TortoiseGit commit every time a file changes?

If you were on Linux, maybe you could do something with FUSE. Your FUSE driver could present the repository as a file system, with .commit_id directories for historical data.
