Heh, surprisingly, I've never ever sent a pull request to anyone, anywhere. :) HEAD is 9799e5c5397b7aa14dbc660645ef4ccaf5418c78 > BTW, git doesn't like this: > > https://github.com/djwong/xfstests/tree/for-dave > > What git really wants is the tree url with a separate branch name > like so: > > https://github.com/djwong/xfstests.git for-dave > > (i.e. the typical output from a git request-pull command) > > > This is a (no longer) small patch set against the reflink/dedupe test > > cases in xfstests.

Well... FIEMAP now /does/ act like the other filesystems. But perhaps we can do better with getbmapx and show the exact shared regions.
