- This project is now known as "libostree", though it is
- still appropriate to use the previous name: "OSTree" (or
- "ostree"). The focus is on projects which use libostree's
- shared library, rather than users directly invoking the command
- line tools (except for build systems). However, in most of
- the rest of the documentation, we will use the term "OSTree",
- since it's slightly shorter, and changing all documentation
- at once is impractical. We expect to transition to the new
- name over time.
-
- As implied above, libostree is both a shared library and suite
- of command line tools that combines a "git-like" model for
- committing and downloading bootable filesystem trees, along
- with a layer for deploying them and managing the bootloader
- configuration.
-
- The core OSTree model is like git in that it checksums
- individual files and has a content-addressed-object
- store. It's unlike git in that it "checks out" the files
- via hardlinks, and they thus need to be immutable to prevent
- corruption. Therefore, another way to think of OSTree is that
- it's just a more polished version of Linux VServer hardlinks.
