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
