Plan 9 from Bell Labs’s /usr/web/sources/patch/applied/vac-file-mid/readme
Handle mid in vac. It is obviously an oversight since /sys/src/cmd/vac/file.c was initially derived from /sys/src/cmd/fossil/file.c, but Fossil doesn't have to copy the mid since it set it from the uid. It has been reviewed and merged in plan9port.
