Interesting suggestion! I read up on git-notes.

Yes, reports are closely related to a commit -- it's a lot of the
execution of puppet with that config on a client node. At the same
time, we have one report per change deployment, per client -- with
thousands of clients. So it will be a large dataset, and a transient
one -- I intend to use git as a store-and-forward mechanism for the
reports, and it is safe&sane to forget old reports.

I don't see much ease-of-expiry in the notes, so I guess I would have
to write that myself, which complicates things a bit :-)

cheers,
