# The file system I want


Working on backup programs for almost a decade now, I've had plenty of
time to think about file system wrt backups. Basically I want the following
properties in a file system

 * online snapshots in a `.snapshots` directory (for instance).
 * the possibility to say the *all* those `.snapshot` directories
   must be mounted on a separate mount point.
 * to ability so say the `.snapshot` directories should be encrypted
   and send to *remote* server.

I think this is too much to ask...
