Unix backends

This module provides Irmin backends for Unix applications. The currently supported backends are:

An in-memory store, internally using hash tables.
A file-system backend, using bin_prot to serialize internal structures.
A fully compatible, bidirectional encoding of Irmin into Git. You can view and edit your store using both the library and your usual Git tools.
The HTTP clients and servers provides a high-level REST API, with 1 RTT for the private and public functions.

val info : 
  ?author:string ->
  ('a, Format.formatter, unit, Irmin.Info.f) Pervasives.format4 ->
  'a

info fmt () creates a fresh commit info, with the date set to Unix.gettimeoday () and the author built using Unix.gethostname() and Unix.getpid() if author is not provided.
