If you want to manage multiple files as a group then one of your
better options is to package them up in an .rpm, .deb, or whatever
other flavor of package your system prefers.  This works best if the
files change rarely and are not customized on a per-machine basis, but
in principle it could be done dynamically.  If a full disk is a
significant concern, however, and not just an example, then please do
recognize that the package approach has more overhead on the client
than some alternatives.
