Hello! xfsprogs v3.2.3 has just been released. This is mainly a bugfix release (see below for a summary). There is a notable change in defaults for mkfs.xfs - it will now make CRC enabled filesystems by default, and you will need to use "mkfs.xfs -m crc=0" to make filesystems compatible with production kernels older than 3.15. The source code can be accessed via git using either of these URLs: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/xfs/xfsprogs-dev.git git://oss.sgi.com/xfs/cmds/xfsprogs.git and the release is tagged with the "v3.2.3" tag to make it easy to check out the exact source used for the release. A signed gzipped-tar archive of the source code is available here: ftp://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs/cmd_tars/xfsprogs-3.2.3.tar.gz ftp://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs/cmd_tars/xfsprogs-3.2.3.tar.gz.sign The archive is signed with my gpg key (the same one that this release announcement is signed with).
