I just realized that this can be seen much more general and updated the ticket accordingly.

    initial v1  
    1 From my understanding, when using `tahoe backup` it is currently not possible to have ''a single'' CAP always pointing to the latest snapshot (wording with respect to #1952).
     1From my understanding, when using `tahoe backup` it is currently not possible to have ''a single'' CAP always pointing to the latest version of a file/directory.

    3 Is there a specific reason why the directory `Latest` is immutable?
    4 If so, `tahoe backup` could have an additional switch to use a mutable directory.
    5 If not, `tahoe backup` could use a mutable directory per default.
     3Couldn't `tahoe backup` put an immutable, timestamped copy of `Latest` into `Archives` and update everything in `Latest` afterwards?
     4That way, `Latest` would contain only CAPs that (are not changing and) are always pointing to the most recent version of a file/direcory.
