Three year old article teaches slightly outdated techniques and basic ZFS usage on linux by way of specious comparisons to GIT.
I guess it wasn’t a half bad resource when it came out, but these days there’s got to be better blog posts about this, right?
EDIT: Not that I’m bitter; I love zfs. I mainly wonder how something so old ended up here.
- somebehemoth 10y agoI very much appreciated this article and shared it with coworkers who also found it helpful. I can understand the desire to only read the latest news, but I've learned a lot of stuff in my life that was useful but only new to me. The key benefit to this article was the comparison of ZFS to something I am familiar with: Git. My wild guess is that other non-filesystem geeks like me liked this article for similar reasons and upvoted despite its age. Edit: Perhaps the ZFS to Git comparison is itself novel? I would like to read about other filesystem features (any file system) from this perspective because I think I would learn a lot.
