Feature request: add script to populate data/ folder with examples

[dcoeurjo]

For the first start, it would be nice to have kind of "populate-data.sh" script which could clone a repo with couple of data files (mhd/raw, vtk, ...).
At this point (fresh install), I don't see where to put my files.

OK... i've just seen the "upload" action...

But you're right anyway....

There is a new toolkit for data exchange, dat:
http://dat-data.com/

which seems interesting, open source, and geared towards reproducible research:

Looks nice, indeed.. However, it is not clear, from the video, how blob files are handled/streamed (w.r.t. to a classical git repo).
I'll check the website...
