Message-ID: <2f11087b-c1c8-499c-99ad-368dcead60c4@harmstone.com> (raw)

Hi all,

I have released version 20260330 of btrfs-dump, which given a btrfs 
image produces a text-form representation of its metadata:

https://github.com/maharmstone/btrfs-dump

This version also includes btrfs-assemble, which does the reverse: given 
a text file, it creates a corresponding btrfs image. This is useful for 
creating deliberately invalid images for testing purposes - previously, 
this was difficult to do without using a hex editor.

Changelog:
* Added remap_tree to incompat flags
* Fixed issue when dumping compressed inline extent
* Extra bytes on an item now get written out explicitly
* Spaces and special characters in file names now get escaped
* Added man page
* Added btrfs-assemble

Thanks
