Subject: [PATCH] Btrfs-progs: Fix manual of btrfs command
Date: Fri, 16 Dec 2011 17:46:48 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4EEB0578.6000709@rs.jp.nec.com> (raw)
Usage of balancing btrfs is "btrfs filesystem balance",
not "btrfs device balance". And remove unneeded
usage of "btrfs filesystem defrag".
Also fix some typos and over 80 columns.
