Reflinks aren't particularly new, and nor is Check the guts of your favourite libraries, you might be surprised! Bonus: I should say, zfs doesn't yet support this in a release on Linux, surprisingly. Support was recently added on master in https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/pull/13392 but only for FreeBSD. I believe Linux support is in the works. Bonus2: Portage |
And last but in no way least, GNU coreutils 9.0 defaults to
--reflink=auto
forcp
andinstall
.Let me know if there's other software out there which supports this transparently.
