This would likely mean that Git LFS will have to reimplement it, since we strictly avoid using CGo (Go's mechanism to issue function calls to other languages). The upshot is that it likely shouldn't be too much effort for anybody, and the open-source community would get a Go implementation of the API, too. Thanks, Taylor
