I haven't figured out how to make the binaries available to users. Few users can clone a 26 gigabyte repository, and even fewer places can serve that much to multiple users. Maybe Git can compress it further? The other idea I had is that users should be able to regression test through a GUI tool. Maybe the GUI tool can just download and run the +/- 122 MB binary snapshots for specific commits, instead of having the entire binary repository locally?
Any other ideas? Would you like to see this tool? Can I send an attachment with it?
Perhaps you could use an intermediary server and a script. The user tells the script "works" or "doesn't" and then the script fetches the binary via rsync from a special directory on the server that has the git repo there. That way the user only needs to download the binaries he runs, and even then they'll be done incrementally via rsync magic.
