What would a version FS buy us that cron+ zfs snapshots doesn't?
Finer granularity; no chance of missing a change.
TOPS-20 did this, and it was *tremendously* useful . Snapshots, source
control, and other alternatives aren't, in fact, alternatives.
They're useful in and of themselves, very useful indeed, but they
don't address the same needs as versioning.
VMS _still_ does this, and it's one of my favorite features of the OS.
It is a real PITA if you are unfortunate enough to use quotas :-(
