is a tool to change a file-system from one format to another, for example from jfs, xfs, or reiser to ext2, ext3, or ext4, in-place and without the need for backup.

| | From 0.9.3 to 0.9.4, Massimiliano Ghilardi 2012-04-15: |
| | all: |
| | * testing IN PROGRESS on 'nilfs2' and 'ocfs2' file systems |
| | * some changes to compile on FreeBSD - still NOT finished! |
| | |
| | fsattr: |
| | * new program, used for fallocate() speedup on ext4 file system. |
| | it removes the 'fallocate' flag (actually named 'uninit') |
| | from all files inside an unmounted ext4 file system |
| | |
| | fsmove: |
| | * added option --io=prealloc to fallocate() target files |
| | instead of moving them from source to target. |
| | it's much faster and 100% safe, unlike default --io=posix |
| | that incrementally moves source files during work |
| | and cannot move them back in case of 'disk full' errors. |
| | |
| | fsremap: |
| | * UNFINISHED: added options --io=prealloc, --mount-point-device=DIR |
| | and --mount-point-loop-file=DIR |
| | used together with fsmove option --io=prealloc: |
| | in addition to the normal setup (i.e. scanning loop file and zero file) |
| | they assume target files (inside loop file) are preallocated |
| | and their contents still reside in the corresponding source |
| | files (inside device) |
| | * FIXME: support replaying preallocation |
