I'll look into the problem. I've identified the bug and made a patch a little while ago. It was an elementary but critical bug, so I appreciate very much for your quick report. =EF=BB=BFWe will soon release v2.0.2 to clean things up. (Meanwhile, the corrected version is available on the git tree http://www.nilfs.org/git/ ) Sincerely, --=20 Ryusuke Konishi NILFS team NTT http://www.nilfs.org/
