If I could have a git API to glacier I would be happy.
I have tried various glacier clients and they all seem to suck. So I have trouble tracking exactly what I have stored there sanely. :( Unusable.
- phamilton 11y agoAre you using glacier specific clients? I just use an s3 client and configure the bucket to put everything in Glacier. For example, I have a cron job calling `s3cmd sync` for my photos on my iMac once a day.
- hendry 11y agoI'm aware of that easy API of getting stuff to glacier, but once it "expires" to glacier, how do you check what's actually there? It quickly becomes a nightmare for me. Hence I need git! http://natalian.org/2015/04/13/How_I_organise_my_media/ http://natalian.org/2015/04/13/How_I_organise_my_media/
- ilaksh 11y agoWhat about s3backer with a filesystem (https://code.google.com/p/s3backer/wiki/CreatingANewFilesystem https://code.google.com/p/s3backer/wiki/CreatingANewFilesyst...). Then you could use regular git. I think any active use of glacier is going to suck though. Just use that for archive.
- derobert 11y agogit-annex has a glacier remote which is supposed to work (I haven't personally used it yet). http://git-annex.branchable.com/special_remotes/glacier/ http://git-annex.branchable.com/special_remotes/glacier/
