    I wish someone would port Python and BorgBackup to it. Venti/Fossil are not quite as nice for multi-OS backups.

      Python 2.5.1 was distributed as part of 9front back when it used hg, but it was ultimately removed from the base system once we switched over to git9. 9legacy still packages binaries, however; they’re up to 2.7.6 for Python and 2.9.2 for Mercurial.

      I never bother with venti/fossil, honestly. I’m more of a cwfs kind of person, but Ori’s gefs has been attracting my attention lately.

        Venti/Fossil are awesome for a Plan 9 network. Sadly, the world isn’t Plan 9. TIL about gefs though.
