Hi, I want to do an “awesome things” list with BTRFS tools
Help me gather them?
BTRFS CLI Interface
btrfs-progs official userpace utilities
BTRFS Assistant
Tool for doing many BTRFS actions graphically
btrbk
Backup utility using BTRFS
snapper
General system snapshot utility with BTRFS support, used in OpenSUSE Tumbleweed
butter-manager
Tool for managing snapshots, balancing filesystems and upgrading the system safetly.
btrfs-list
Helps listing directories
Partition managers with support
- kde-partitionamanger
- gnome-disks?
- blivet?
- gparted?
I’m not saying this to start a fight, but as a person who used btrfs for a situation it was not suited for: there need to be some tools for migrating off btrfs here.
Ok you know one?
Not that I was aware of a couple of years ago. I ended up copying to a different media, reformatting and copying back and accepting the loss of the snapshots.
