I am still waiting for someone to come up with a CAS (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Content-addressable_storage http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Content-addressable_storage) file system like git.
- chubot 14y agoThere are some projects in this area, like: http://git-annex.branchable.com/ http://git-annex.branchable.com/ http://camlistore.org/ http://camlistore.org/ What exactly did you want out of a CAS file system?
- rational_indian 14y agoSpace savings at the moment. I tend to accumulate a lot of files which do not change over time (ebooks, other documents etc) and sometimes I have multiple redundant copies (often with different names). A CAS file system could replace any duplicates added to the file system with a hard link to a preexisting copy and help me save space.
