Ah, I've been using 

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/xfs/xfsprogs-dev.git

and I can remember that it's not the first time I've realized that I

the xfs channel, but does this keep changing, or is it just me ? :)

Will resend the patch based on the

git://oss.sgi.com/xfs/cmds/xfsprogs.git

thanks Eric!
