Subject: [sup-devel] [issue86] git-style delta storage
Date: Mon, 29 Mar 2010 02:21:02 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1269829261.99.0.22306257269.issue86@masanjin.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1269829261.99.0.22306257269.issue86@masanjin.net>


New submission from anonymous:

Maybe this is a crazy idea, but I think it would be a well-rewarding long-term
project because if it's completed, Sup would be the first mail client to
implement it: have Sup store mail in delta storage.

An obvious raison d'être would be that storing a lot of mail would consume a
large amount of disk space, and using delta storage would greatly reduce that
amount, especially when threads that contain messages that quote each other are
present.
