Are you aware of https://github.com/bup/bup? It's a git file format based backup incremental backup tool.

Do you also use rolling checksums (like bup) to prevent re-storing data when only a few bytes have changed?

--> What are the major use cases you imagine for noms?

I've read the section on Github, but can you give some specific examples that you see as good use cases?
