I argue that we should default to directory creation for all filesystems
that it is the sane upstream default you say we should default to
subvolumes creation for those that are supported ( currently just btrfs )
Now let's hear it from you since you seem to be so eager to dismiss both
my arguments along with Martin's, what value does it add, problems it
solves and why we ( and thus distribution, administrators, end users and
vendors basically all consumers of systemd and btrfs ) should default to
create subvolumes.
Btw my knowledge on btrfs is fine thank you, yours from my pov seems to
be limited to a single host implementations where it's more implemented
for development than practicality and you somehow seem to be again not
taking into account the ramification outside the systemd project itself
and it's community, the same thing you did with regards to your
*visionary* changes to hostnames, it's meaning and usage which we
discussed on one of the hackfests or you recent approval in another
thread regarding timedate where I side with and say Kay was and is right.
