cool project,
id be interested ina pure-FS backend as well,
as the overhead of a git/hg add/commit is a bit too much for eg a single 'field' of data
Well, for high-performance we expect people to use Data.Binary and roll their own subset of version-controlling capabilities. If you wouldn't use git or darcs for something to begin with, filestore isn't going to help much.
plus you can also verison via new URIs and/or a subtree-versioning FS like BTRfs...
Going through a versioning FS sounds like a good idea, although I wouldn't want to implement some of the more complex functions like a history changelog. Patches are welcome. (Versioning plain files vie new names sounds very inefficient to me, though; I wonder if such a system would be worse than just using darcs/git.) - -- gwern -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) iEYEAREKAAYFAkl9zDEACgkQvpDo5Pfl1oI98ACfdt7jic+VccLSVaBBvuvAHBJ6 3UwAn365v53Zzm2mK2CCWCaRbCxT+Kum =LJol -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
