Description: content-addressed filesystem for operating system binaries
libostree provides a library and tools for managing bootable, immutable,
versioned filesystem trees. It is like git in that it checksums
individual files and has a content-addressed object store; unlike git,
it "checks out" the files using hardlinks into an immutable directory
tree. This can be used to provide atomic upgrades with rollback, history
and parallel-installation, particularly useful on "fixed purpose"
systems such as embedded devices.
This package contains the executables used to manage and create
filesystem trees. It does not affect the boot process for the system
on which it is installed.
