Walkthrough

The README.md was extensively rewritten to provide a comprehensive project overview, including new sections on motivation, research data management, and data sharing concepts. Additionally, a new documentation file, docs/jzfs-spec.md, was added to explain the challenges in data ecosystems and the rationale for JZFS, without altering any code or public entities.

Changes

File(s) Change Summary
README.md Completely rewritten and expanded with detailed sections, visuals, and improved formatting.
docs/jzfs-spec.md New documentation file added discussing the motivation and challenges addressed by JZFS.

Possibly related PRs

  • add docs for jzfs #182: Both PRs focus on expanding and enriching the README and related documentation to provide a detailed, structured overview of JZFS’s purpose, capabilities, and research data management approach, with overlapping content and themes in the README.md and docs/jzfs-spec.md files.

Poem

A README reborn, with badges and flair,
New docs explain why JZFS cares.
From data swamps to structured delight,
Sharing and syncing, all day and night.
🐇 With specs and stories, our vision is clear—
Data bunnies rejoice, for progress is here!

There are 3 ways to chat with CodeRabbit:

  • Review comments: Directly reply to a review comment made by CodeRabbit. Example:
    • I pushed a fix in commit <commit_id>, please review it.
    • Explain this complex logic.
    • Open a follow-up GitHub issue for this discussion.
  • Files and specific lines of code (under the "Files changed" tab): Tag @coderabbitai in a new review comment at the desired location with your query. Examples:
    • @coderabbitai explain this code block.
    • @coderabbitai modularize this function.
  • PR comments: Tag @coderabbitai in a new PR comment to ask questions about the PR branch. For the best results, please provide a very specific query, as very limited context is provided in this mode. Examples:

    • @coderabbitai read src/utils.ts and explain its main purpose.
    • @coderabbitai read the files in the src/scheduler package and generate a class diagram using mermaid and a README in the markdown format.
    • @coderabbitai help me debug CodeRabbit configuration file.

**JZFS** is an open-source, cloud-native version control filesystem based on Git protocol for data management and publication with a command line interface and a Python API. With JZFS, you can version control arbitrarily large data, share or consume data, record your data’s provenance, and work computationally reproducible.

JZFS adapts principles of open-source software development and distribution to address the technical challenges of data management, data sharing, and digital provenance collection across the life cycle of digital objects.
