Good question. My life has become a little bit chaotic lately, but I’m hopefuly to finalise Pijul 1.0 in the next week or so. The main challenge is to make sure that the foreseeable future improvements won’t need a major change in the data representation.
In particular, Pijul 1.0 uses very little disk space (compared to 0.12), and patches can be downloaded in a very efficient way in many cases, allowing large binary files to be transferred more efficiently. But this also means that the network protocol is more complicated, since there are now two ways to transfer a patch, a “preliminary” one containing a small prefix of a patch, and a “full” one containing the whole thing.
