It's in the man page[1], you put the file at the filesystem creation:
$ mkdwarfs -i /path/dir -o image.dwarfs

Not to be confused with dwarffs – https://github.com/edolstra/dwarffs.
Whoops: WebDAV:

SeaweedFS supports WebDAV. https://github.com/seaweedfs/seaweedfs/wiki/WebDAV
I'm not able to find if both/restic supports mounting backups as WebDAV, but in theory there's nothing stopping you.
It's 100% user space (expose a rest service) and supported by a bunch of file-browsers with a bit of a network aware component to it as well.
I think Kopia would be great for your use case

It has a great system to snapshot files but only store data if it's changed. I use it in an environment where I can't use something like zfs to snapshot data because I don't have the ability to make decisions about what filesystem we're using. It's been amazing, love it so much!
