We've been explicitly supporting git-annex on our platform since our friend Jason Scott first showed it to us[1] and we will be contributing to the new campaign.
And just so people know without having to check the site:
> git-annex users may sign up for our full featured offsite filesystem at a rate of 10 cents per GB, per month. An annual payment is required, and the minimum account size is 50 GB. There are no usage/bandwidth charges, no signup fee, and no contract to sign.
Wow, that looks great. With the discount it matches S3's storage pricing, but without bandwidth charges, with a more convenient interface (an ssh-reachable regular filesystem), and full-service support. Plus an interesting attempt at a "warrant canary": http://www.rsync.net/resources/notices/canary.txt
This was announced a few days ago, but not on HN in any way:
