[PATCH] makedumpfile: reverse -c and -p if using snappy compression

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I think that better is to have:

-cz zlib
-cs snappy
-cl zlo
-ca - automatic selection of compression. Snappy if compiled in, then
lzo. And if no snappy and lzo then zlib.

this will make options more readable.

Best regards.
Maxim.
