Comment from the peanut gallery:

I haven't read your approach in great detail, but just in case you are not 
aware, there is a project call git-annex <http://git-annex.branchable.com/> 
by Joey Hess that I believe takes a similar approach.

Since you've obviously given this a lot of thought, you might want to take a 
peek at that and see if it already does what you want, or if your proposal 
does something significantly different/better.
