To be really sure that any directory entries have hit disk we need to call fsync() on the directory fd. This API allows us to conveniently create a directory hierarchy, fsyncing all of it along the way.
OSTree is a tool for managing bootable, immutable, versioned filesystem trees. While it takes over some of the roles of tradtional "package managers" like dpkg and rpm, it is not a package system; nor is it a tool for managing full disk images. Instead, it sits between those levels, offering a blend of the advantages (and disadvantages) of both.
