fsquirrel

A small library for stashing custom extended attribute key-value pairs into file metadata.

This attributes are preserved when files are fs::copy'd to a compatible file system, but discarded in cases such as uploading to the internet.

Platform support

On Unix (Android, Linux, MacOS, FreeBSD, NetBSD), this is a wrapper around xattr, hard-coded to the user. namespace.

On Windows, this uses NTFS Alternate Data Streams. It's not compatible with OS/2 exended attributes.
