By configuring ipfs config --json Experimental.FilestoreEnabled true and adding files as ipfs add --nocopy <file> will allow files to be added without duplicating the space they take up on disk.

Ref: https://github.com/ipfs/go-ipfs/blob/master/docs/experimental-features.md#ipfs-filestore

  • PROS:
    • Saves disk write access and space
    • Easy to check sharing files by ipfs filestore ls
  • CON:
    • Still experimental
