Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package name : fl-cow Version : 0.4 Upstream Author : Davide Libenzi * URL : http://xmailserver.org/flcow.html * License : GPL Description : copy-on-write utility
Fl-cow allows you to utilise hard links to save disk space by causing hard-linked files to be copied rather than overwritten as they are changed. This is useful for making changes to large source trees while keeping a copy of the original tree to generate patches from. Also, if you are using the Arch revision control system with working copies hard-linked to a revision library, using fl-cow can prevent revision library corruption.
