Good to know, thanks.
Just curious: what happens if the destination you're syncing the
snapshot diff to, isn't quite like expected?
For instance, if I use an existing rsync destination to start syncing
btrfs snapshots to after that, and one file operation can't be applied
because let's say the destination file it's supposed to be applied to,
isn't there?
Thanks,
Marc
