Currently, 'bcachefs set-fs-option' requires all devices to be specified when setting options on an offline multidevice filesystem - it can't yet scan for the rest of the filesystem members. We do need to fix this, but the scan code is written in Rust, so that either means a lot of ugly FFI code or rewriting cmd_set_option() in Rust - neither of which are happening today. So as an interim hack, add a --dev-idx option: this can be specified (multiple times if desired) for indicating which devices the device specific options should be applied to.

Userspace tools and docs for bcachefs
Bcachefs is an advanced new filesystem for Linux, with an emphasis on reliability and robustness and the complete set of features one would expect from a modern filesystem.
This repo primarily consists of the following:
- bcachefs tool, the reason this repo exists.
- {mkfs,mount,fsck}.bcachefs utils, which is just wrappers calling the corresponding subcommands in the main tool
- docs in the form of man-pages and a user manual
Please refer to the main site for getting started An in-depth user manual is (also) found on the official website
Version semantics
The tools relies on an expected disk format structure which is reflected by your current kernel version. Disk format can be upgraded or downgraded automatically by the kernel, if needed.
- Any patch-level change means no disk format change
- Any minor-level change means a potential disk format change which is not breaking
- Any major-level change means breaking changes
