Reconstitute directory structure and files using a metadata cache and templates (sometimes called layouts). Highly optimized caching system, interruptable, with deep archive traversal.
Template files allow one to share/archive file organization and identities by use of hashes. Templates work well for preserving metadata, which can be used to reconstitute file/folder structures. Templates provide a way to comment on, specify hierarchy of, and identify data.
GammaCopy currently supports only SourceMaterial DataBase (or SMDB) templates.
