Omg. Watching a 2015 talk about some neat things you can do with ZFS. Presenter described using ZFS snapshots as a branching mechanism for SVN. Wow. Does SVN not have branches?
<andi->
well a branch in SVN is usually a copy of the src tree to `branches/my-awesome-branch`

elvishjerricco: one of the main selling points of Git compared to SVN was actually the 'cheap branches'
<joepie91>
that is, you would not have to duplicate information between branches
<joepie91>
I suspect that they're trying to use ZFS to accomplish something similar for SVN
