IPFS

ipfs logo

IPFS (InterPlanetary File System) is a peer-to-peer distributed file system that seeks to connect all computing devices with the same system of files.

In some ways, IPFS is similar to the World Wide Web, but IPFS could be seen as a single BitTorrent swarm, exchanging objects within one Git repository. In other words, IPFS provides a high-throughput, content-addressed block storage model, with content-addressed hyperlinks. This forms a generalized Merkle directed acyclic graph (DAG).

IPFS combines a distributed hash table, an incentivized block exchange, and a self-certifying namespace. IPFS has no single point of failure, and nodes do not need to trust each other, except for every node they are connected to. Distributed Content Delivery saves bandwidth and prevents distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks, a problem common with HTTP.

Not providing any repo locking causes difficult to debug issues as I've hit earlier myself and now others have as well, see #241.

Simplest way could be to fail at Repo::init time if a lock file exists. If the lock file doesn't exist, one must be created and again removed at exit time. Probably ok to rely on deletion at Dro

We have types in various places that do not follow the Rust naming conventions. A good example are all the GraphQL* types that should be spelled GraphQl* to follow the conventions.

It would be nice to clean this up by renaming all types that don't follow the rules.

Marking this as a "good first issue", as it's low-hanging fruit and would be a good way for new contributors to contribute somet
