Linux XFS has also added copy-on-write a few years ago.
Initially I was not aware of this and I was surprised when I have copied a directory with a total size greater than 50 GB and the copy was instantaneous. At first I believed that I had given some wrong command, but then I searched the XFS documentation and I saw that this was a new feature at that time.
