Subject: [PATCH RESEND] xfsprogs: add supported file attributes to xfs.5 manpage
Date: Wed, 20 Aug 2014 13:00:09 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <53F4E229.3010607@redhat.com> (raw)

The chattr(1) manpage now refers users to filesystem-specific
manpages for details on supported attributes, so add those to
xfs.5.

Signed-off-by: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@redhat.com>

I thought I had sent this already, but I guess not...

one gets through...)
