mhddfs - Multi HDD [FUSE] File System
File system for unifying several mount points into one
This FUSE-based file system allows mount points (or directories) to be
combined, simulating a single big volume which can merge several hard
drives or remote file systems. It is like unionfs, but can choose the
drive with the most free space to create new files on, and can move
data transparently between drives.

rdup is a utility inspired by rsync and the Plan9 way of doing backups.
rdup itself does not backup anything; it only prints a list of the names of
files that have changed since the last backup. It also handles files that are
removed, allowing for correct incremental backups.
Example scripts that implement a backup strategy are included.
(These scripts require GNU date and cp, which are not installed by
this FreeBSD port.)

Thanks to: miwi for build-testing
Actually, we're not trying to reinvent the wheel here,
rather adapt it to suit a slightly different purpose.
Below are a few main points and reasons as to why we've created filetype:
* file does not work so well for loosely defined filetypes ( ie, vCards )
* file uses a text-based type database which can impose unwanted delays
in frequently invoked processes
* file does not have a heirachial type tree (ie, executable->MSDOS->EXE )
* file is not designed to be incorporated at a source level into existing
projects
* Simpler and broader type detection engine ( 'file' is very good at
pulling out every detail about a file, ie, the resolution of an image,
however we do not wish to seek out such fine details )

These applications find identical / duplicate files and hard- or symlink
them to save space. This port was inspired by the application samefile
written by Jens Schweikhardt. It has a own version of samefile that is
noticeable faster and is able to process very large file list.
This port contains the applications: samefile, samelink and samearchive.
The latter does the same as samefile but for file-based archives. The
port also contains a version that uses just 10% of the resources compared
to samearchive. The application samelink (hard) links files for you.
Typical usage would be:
find / | samefile -i | samelink
This would search for identical files and clean up wasted disk space by
linking them together. Add the option -n after samelink for a dry-run.

Afuse is an automounting file system implemented in user-space using
FUSE. Afuse currently implements the most basic functionality that can
be expected by an automounter; that is it manages a directory of virtual
directories. If one of these virtual directories is accessed and is not
already automounted, afuse will attempt to mount a filesystem onto that
directory. If the mount succeeds the requested access proceeds as normal,
otherwise it will fail with an error.
The advantage of using afuse over traditional automounters is that afuse
is designed to run entirely in user-space by individual users. This way an
automounting action can take advantage of the invoking users environment,
for example allowing access to an ssh-agent for password-less sshfs
mounts, or allowing access to a graphical environment to get user input
to complete a mount (i.e. popping up a window asking for a password).

New port: sysutil/zccron A cron like tool that performs a single pass on a
crontab stored in ZConf.
This is like comiccron, but stores the tabs in ZConf. For
it to run the command, the last or next time it will be
will have to be within a minute and 15 seconds. For most
usages, you will want to have the hour and minute set to
*. This allows a user to do something how ever many times
they want any time during the period it is active.
After running through every entry in the crontab, it then
exits.
Why not cron?
You can have cron open opera or the like on a specific
display by either switch or enviromental options, but it
will always open it. This allows you to open it any time
along the point it is active.
