[PATCH] xfs_quota: Better describe quota verbose output

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

 



Due historical reasons, and to be compliant with the generic quota command,
xfs_quota does not output any information when there is no used percentage of
the available quota. Such behavior might make users confused, so, I believe it's
better to have the reasons for such behavior better documented.
