Could you perhaps explain why one might want to use this in preference
to any of the alternatives one might think of -- such as:

  mv
  mmv
  borgbackup (or whatever other decent backup system you use anyway)
  git (perhaps along with git-annex or git-lfs)

Also, do you happen to have any impression of how many users there are
of your package at present?  (e.g. download stats, messages regarding
it, issues opened etc.)

Cheers, Phil.
