Dear Jed Brown, Do you plan to incorporate this feature soon? I have large files stored using git fat and it will be very helpful to have this feature.

Thanks. JT

Selective push is a recipe for lost files. Selective pull was implemented ages ago. See test.sh for example:

git fat pull -- 'a.fa*'

Thanks for your quick response. Is there a way to pull a specific file?

e.g. git fat pull -- my/very/fat-file.blob

That's a special case of the globbing example I cited.
