I'm pretty sure this can be done with a VFS module.
I couldn't say exactly which one though.

I guess there is no such VFS module :)

OK, but as he also asked for deleted recycle support, I'm about 50% correct as there is a recycle VFS module :)

But wouldn't it be possible to write a version control VFS module?

That intercept saves of existing files and saves the old one with a different name?

I might be really wrong here :)


Another possibility would be to use some FUSE filesystem on a Samba server, and then make a share out of it.

That would be a good alternative if it is possible to replace the filesystem used. =)
Take a look at this page:

http://fuse.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/FileSystems

and there look for:

User-level Versioning File System

Name: Wayback

Homepage: http://wayback.sourceforge.net/

Description
When you use a Wayback file system, old versions of files are never lost. No matter how much you change a file or directory, everything is always kept in a versioning file so that you never lose important data. Wayback provides the ability to remount any already mounted file system with versioning support under a different directory.


I didn't test it personally, but we'll all curious if you do :)

Let us know how it works then of course, it's an interesting topic.
