Subject: [Qemu-devel] [qemu-kvm PATCH] docs: updated qemu-img man page and qemu-doc to reflect VHDX support.
Date: Tue, 17 Dec 2013 13:41:46 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4ce3097653ce4850e74efa9abb41561babfd38ee.1387305554.git.jcody@redhat.com> (raw)
The man page for qemu-img, and the qemu-doc, did not mention VHDX
as a supported format. This adds in reference to VHDX in those
documents.
