-
- <i>Vac</i> creates an archival copy of Plan 9 file trees on Venti. It
- can be used to build a simple backup system. One of the unusual
- properties of Venti is that duplicate blocks are detected and
- coalesced. When <i>vac</i> is used on a file tree that shares data with
- an existing archive, the consumption of storage will be approximately
- equal to an incremental backup. This reduction in storage consumption
- occurs transparently to the user.
- <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
-
- As an optimization, the <tt><font size=+1>&#8722;d</font></tt> and <tt><font size=+1>&#8722;q</font></tt> options, described below, can
- be used to explicitly create an archive relative to an existing
- archive. These options do not change the resulting archive generated
- by <i>vac</i>, but simply reduce the number of write operations to Venti.
-
- <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
-
- The output of <i>vac</i> is the hexadecimal representation of the Sha1
- fingerprint of the root of the archive, in this format:<br>

- Specifies the block size that data will be broken into. The units
- for the size can be specified by appending <tt><font size=+1>k</font></tt> to indicate kilobytes.
- The default is 8k. The size must be in the range of 512 bytes
- to 52k.<br>

-
- </table>
- <tt><font size=+1>&#8722;m</font></tt>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Expand and merge any <i>vac</i> archives that are found while reading
- the input files. This option is useful for building an archive
- from a collection of existing archives. Each archive is inserted
- into the new archive as if it had been unpacked in the directory
- in which it was found. Multiple archives can be unpacked in
-
- <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=2><td><tr><td width=20><td>
-
- a single directory and the contents will be merged. To be detected,
- the archives must end in <tt><font size=+1>.vac</font></tt>. Note, an archive is inserted by
- simply copying the root fingerprint and does not require the archive
- to be unpacked.<br>

- <tt><font size=+1>&#8722;q</font></tt>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Increase the performance of the <tt><font size=+1>&#8722;d</font></tt> option by detecting unchanged
- files based on a match of the files name and other meta data,
- rather than examining the contents of the files.<br>
- <tt><font size=+1>&#8722;s</font></tt>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Print out various statistics on standard error.<br>
- <tt><font size=+1>&#8722;v</font></tt>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Produce more verbose output on standard error, including the
- name of the files added to the archive and the vac archives that
- are expanded and merged.<br>
