Bug#868980: ITP: casync -- content addressable data synchronizer
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Felipe Sateler <fsateler@debian.org>
* Package name : casync
Version : 1
Upstream Author : Lennart Poettering <lennart@poettering.de>
* URL : https://github.com/systemd/casync
* License : LGPL-2.1
Programming Lang: C
Description : content addressable data synchronizer
casync is
.
1. A combination of the rsync algorithm and content-addressable storage
2. An efficient way to store and retrieve multiple related versions of
large file systems or directory trees
3. An efficient way to deliver and update OS and container images over
the Internet
4. An efficient backup system
.
casync uses well-known concepts implemented in a variety of other projects
(primarily git and rsync), and puts them together in a moderately new, nice
way.
I plan to maintain this within the pkg-systemd umbrella. Co-maintainers
welcome!
