bcachefs-tools 1.11.0

Tools to create and manage bcachefs file systems

This package provides the bcachefs command-line tool with many subcommands for creating, checking, and otherwise managing bcachefs file systems. Traditional aliases like mkfs.bcachefs are also included.

Bcachefs is a CoW file system supporting native encryption, compression, snapshots, and (meta)data checksums. It can use multiple block devices for replication and/or performance, similar to RAID.

In addition, bcachefs provides all the functionality of bcache, a block-layer caching system, and lets you assign different roles to each device based on its performance and other characteristics.
