mtree specification
background
XXX BSD things
It is worth noting here that there are multiple tools for creating and validating a filesystem against a manifest. While a few of them are noted, this specifcaion is not on the tools behaviour, but rather the format of the mtree manifest.
Options are:
- BSD original
- linux port of the BSD tool
- go-mtree/cmd/gomtree
- libarchive output format
manifest format
TODO: document the old bsd, new bsd, and the extensions done in go-mtree
