Comment on 700+ self-hosted Git instances battered in 0-day attacks
Jason2357@lemmy.ca 2 days agoWe also have COW filesystems now. If you need large datasets in different places, used by different projects, etc, just copy them and use BTRFS or ZFS or whatever. It wont take any space and be safer. Git also has multiple ways of connecting external data artifacts. Git should by default reject symlinks.

This is sadly not easily generalizable, since a lot of people still use legacy operating systems with filesystems like NTFS, which as far as I know is not COW.
