Description

Provides user-space tools for managing NILFS, a log-structured Linux filesystem with continuous snapshotting. These tools help create, inspect, check, mount, and maintain NILFS filesystems.

Use it only when working with NILFS volumes or recovering data from one. Filesystem operations can affect stored data, so administrative changes should be deliberate and backed up.

How to run

mkfs.nilfs2

Commands: mkfs.nilfs2
