I'm happy to announce `rdedup` v3.0.0! * generational GC * change in repo format * internal improvements The biggest improvement is the generational GC system, allowing for incremental garbage collection. This should increase the viability of `rdedup` for very big data sets. The repo format was changed, making it incompatible with the previous releases. Unfortunately, while this project is really useful, solid, and attracted quite a bit of attention, it's development mostly slowed down. The main author is content with the current features, reliability and he's busy with other things. There were some people and businesses interested in picking it up and improving for applications they were interested in, but nothing materialized. In a sense, v3 release is about releasing whatever is ready and letting the project be stable and useful to people that find it. The v3 repository format is incompatible with v2, mostly because the author had no time and energy to implement it. If you are interested in working on or using `rdedup`, don't worry - the project is still in great shape, and devs and users are still around.
