| |
Hi Al,
Please pull from
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mszeredi/vfs.git overlayfs-current
The biggest change is to rename the filesystem from "overlayfs" to "overlay". This will allow legacy overlayfs to be easily carried by distros alongside the new mainline one. Also fix a couple of copy-up races and allow escaping comma character in filenames.
Thanks, Miklos
