Is it possible to "stream"
#gitAnnex files? Like: I want to get the first few lines of that 10Gb CSV file but don't have the diskbspace to fully download it. E.g.:
> git annex cat myfile.csv | head
A workaround is to interrupt a `git annex get` shortly after launch, but it might not even allow getting the file when low on disk space, right? 🤔
