BagIt support #124

Open kain88-de opened 7 years ago

kain88-de commented 7 years ago

BagIt is a filesystem hierachy model to allow better long term storage of data. This is good for storing data for publications as it is required by some institutes now. Since datreant already creates folder structures that are similar to the descriptions given in the protokol and stores a lot of meta data in it's Treant objects I think we could add a treant.bagIt() method to convert a Treant to a bagIt archive.
