i forgot about gefs. using a clever design rather than mountains of code is a design philosophy i can appreciate, but its own author says it's not ready for regular use; "it isn't yet trustworthy." i could ask him if his opinion has changed in the last 2 years, but honestly, the name of ori's code hosting is going to bring me down every time i see it, so i think i'll give it a miss. https://orib.dev/gefs.html looking at it has been useful, thanks. https://orib.dev/gefs.pdf reminds/informs me of whats wrong with the other plan 9 filesystems, and has given me an idea for my backup system. > All plan 9 file servers support at least daily dump, fossil also > support ephemeral snapshots. you forgot kfs. everyone forgets kfs. ;) i used to use it with 9vx.
