libostree-1-1
Description
content-addressed filesystem for operating system binaries (library)
libostree is a library 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. It is also used by the Flatpak application
runtime system.
This package contains the shared library.
