## Description of `xl.meta`

`xl.meta` is a new self describing backend format used by MinIO to support AWS S3 compatible versioning.
This file is the source of truth for each `version` at rest. `xl.meta` is a msgpack file serialized from a
well defined data structure. To understand `xl.meta` here are the few things to start with

        // this configuration is on fess_env.properties because this is true only when development
        direction.directDevelopmentHere(fessConfig.isDevelopmentHere());

        // titles of the application for logging are from configurations
        direction.directLoggingTitle(fessConfig.getDomainTitle(), fessConfig.getEnvironmentTitle());

     *
     * @param is the input stream
     * @return the wrapped input stream
     */
    protected static InputStream wrap(final InputStream is) {
        if (is instanceof BufferedInputStream) {
            return is;
        }
        if (is instanceof ByteArrayInputStream) {
            return is;
        }
        return new BufferedInputStream(is, DEFAULT_BUF_SIZE);
    }

   * high 32 bits of each long is the "prev" pointer, whereas the low 32 bits is the "succ" pointer
   * (pointing to the nextEntry entry in the linked list). The pointers in [size(), entries.length)
   * are all "null" (UNSET).
   *
   * <p>A node with "prev" pointer equal to {@code ENDPOINT} is the first node in the linked list,
   * and a node with "nextEntry" pointer equal to {@code ENDPOINT} is the last node.
