Description

We should add an ability to use s3 for file storage rather than local storage if the user wants. This will allow both horizontal scaling as well as hosting on small servers like fly.io.
Since already RAM requirements are very less.

The issue does not name files, tests, or an entry point. First locate how Gitly currently stores files locally, then determine the configuration and storage behavior needed for S3; done means users can choose S3 instead of local storage and the result supports horizontal scaling and small servers.
