Ah. Okay. I think I'm so far doing the right thing then. All my old data is reachable from a permanode (top level node for each disk copied in). But I won't be able to search pics or media until I make each of those permanodes, but at the same time I don't really want to make my code archives and .git files all show up unnecessarily.. maybe. :-)
Maybe I can selectively permafy. Or perhaps I can go all permanode (which would happen if I had been using fuse rw) and not care. Would be good to know what some of you have done so far :-) (phone) On 01-Jun-2016 18:41, "Mathieu Lonjaret" <[email protected]> wrote: > Permanodes are the anchors that keep your data alive and visible, so > yes, your files should usually be somehow reachable through a > permanode.
