# Cow9p - Copy on Write 9p filesystem

## Overview

Simple 9p server that adds a copy on write layer to an existing filesystem.

Invoke with:

	cow9p -s src -d dst

This will start a 9p server (by default listening on tcp port 5640). Any

non-disctructive file operations will try to use the filesystem dst, and will

use src as a fallback if the necessary files do not exist on dst. For

destructive operations (e.g. write) dst will again be used, first, but if the

files are not found, the will be copied to dst from src, rather than operating

on src directly.

## Status

Work in progress. Idea is well defined, but it doesn't work yet. The

interfaces are not considered stable either.

Use at your own risk.
