decide on mount vs recursive copy

[HenryGeorgist]

two approaches for minio have been proposed:

1. mounting a local directory for payloads and model data
2. recursively copying local data into minio

for 1, a developer can make a local change and see it in minio, which is useful. for 2, the workflow keeps the local copy pristine, only making edits in the minio instance, allowing for the developer to take down minio and relaunch it removing any edits a plugin may have made. it requires remembering to restart minio if you want a local file change to be up in the minio instance, but it does provide a benefit of starting from a clean slate each time.
