git_export_hardlink 0.1.0
Git export command that reuses already existing exports and hardlinks files from them.
License: Apache 2.0
Keywords: git,deployment

This package implements a git export command that can be given a list of
already exported worktrees and the tree SHAs these worktrees correspond
too. For every file to export it then looks in the existing worktrees whether
an identical file is already present and in that case hardlinks to the new
export location instead of writing the same file again.

Use Case: A git based web deployment system that exports git trees to be
served by a web server. Every new deployment is written to a new folder. After
the export, the web server should start serving new requests from the new
folder.

Be aware of the dangers of hardlinks. Hardlinks on linux do not
have copy-on-write semantics! This command also does not verify the integrity
of old exported trees. Use git reset --hard after this command to guarantee
a correct export.
