Subject: status of copy-on-write filesystem?
Date: Wed, 11 Feb 2004 10:13:43 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <402A46A7.9070302@nortelnetworks.com> (raw)
I'm doing some work where it would simplify things greatly to have
copy-on-write semantics available.
I've seen overlayfs and the proposed "-union" option for mount, but
there doesn't seem to be anything thats really ready for serious use.
Am I missing something? Is someone working on this?
Thanks,
Chris
