Hi,
the btrfs-progs 4.6 have been released (no change since rc1). The
biggest change is the btrfs-convert rewrite. The delayed release was
caused by more testing as there were some late fixes to the code
although the patchset has been in the development branch for a long
time.
Apart from that, usual load of small fixes and improvements.
* convert - major rewrite:
* fix a long-standing bug that led to mixing data blocks into metadata block
groups
* the workaround was to do full balance after conversion, which was
recommended practice anyway
* explicitly set the lowest supported version of e2fstools to 1.41
* provide and install udev rules file that addresses problems with device
mapper devices, renames after removal
* send: new option: quiet
* dev usage: report slack space (device size minus filesystem area on the dev)
* image: support DUP
* build: short options to enable debugging builds
* other:
* code cleanups
* build fixes
* more tests and other enhancements
