Everybody hi there,
this may be a bit un(cor)related to Wine development, but I am stuck with
choosing a way to mount some file versioning repository as a local FS.
I've found on the net following projects of that vein:
CvsFs [1]
(CvsFS-FUSE)
Wayback [2]
CopyFS [3]
GitFS [4]
cvsfs and wayback was tested on my box, though I was unable to mount my
simple CVS repository correctly even for reading. wayback had some
another issues.
Now I've hit two more projects: copyfs and gitfs. Well, I know I should
test them myself but if anyone was toying around such stuff, it would be
interesting to hear a response about it.
My aim is to update a file in the repository every time my editor changes
that file. So far only copyfs does reads/writes, IMHO, and gitfs is still
only for a reads. :-(
Is there any more FS layers which do r/w?
There is another related project that might be interesting for someone who
debugs changes on binary files - that's LoggedFS [5].
TIA
