You actually can use it to do that (as a lightweight Git Annex) but if everything is local then you are probably better off using `find` or `locate`

You can also track open directories:

    lb webadd debian.db https://ftp.debian.org/debian/

edit: hmmm this specific site causes the script to essentially loop forever (it keeps adding more and more '/' at the end). weird! I'll fix that
