btrfs subvolume clone or fork (btrfs-progs feature request)

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

 



Request for new btrfs subvolume subcommand:

clone or fork [-i <qgroupid] <source> [<dest>]<name>
   Create a subvolume <name> in <dest>, which is a clone or fork of source.
   If <dest> is not given, subvolume <name> will be created in the
current directory.
   Options
   -i <qgroupid>
      Add the newly created subvolume to a qgroup.  This option can be
given multiple times.

Would (I think):
* btrfs subvolume create <dest-subvolume>
* cp -ax --reflink=always <source-subvolume>/* <dest-subvolume>/
