Description-en: Tools to manage aufs filesystems
The aufs driver provides a union mount for Linux filesystems. It allows one
to virtually merge the contents of several directories and/or stack them, so
that file changes in the aufs union mount end up as changes in only one
of the source directories.
.
This package contains utilities needed to configure aufs containers on-the-fly.
