https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10170 --- Comment #6 from Brian J. Murrell <[email protected]> --- Does this --reflink feature have any parity/functionality with --link-dest, which is often used in "snapshot" style [i.e. daily] backup scripts on non-snapshottable filesystems such as XFS? XFS supports COW reflinks but not snapshots and as such rsync --link-dest is more appropriate for creating new backups. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the QA Contact for the bug. -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.
