A couple of use cases I was considering off hand:
1. Oops i truncated my file
2. Oops i saved over my file
3. Oops an app corrupted my file.
4. Oops i rm -rf the wrong directory.
All of which can be solved by periodic snapshots, but versioning gives
us immediacy.
So is immediacy worth it to you folks? I rather not embark on writing
and finishing code on something no one wants besides me.
In my opinion, the marginal benefit of per-write(2) versions over
snapshots (which can be per-transaction, ie. every ~5 seconds) does not
outweigh the complexity of implementation and use/administration.
