<longdescription lang="en">
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.
