As much as I appreciate your intention might be to be helpful it was in fact quite rude and arrogant. I think telling someone in a technical forum to not be so technical and lecturing them on clarity of communication is pretty offensive - you don’t know me, know what I do or who I am, what my background is, and clearly my message wasn’t intended for your consumption since you found it not for your consumption. Some advice since we are dishing it out, this sort of stuff is as annoying as correcting grammar on Usenet posts or all the other forms of things that disingenuously begin with “not to be rude” - if you are aware it is likely to be read as rude, maybe just not type it next time? Just trying to help you be effective and not show such gross colors next time.
PS, it’s about builds on the same tree but about edits on the same set of files in the tree that would cause block COWs in brtfs. If you read the original links docs you will see that’s the use case they’re targeting, and it’s a lot different than build artifacts. Their proposal isn’t just assisting in deduping but in merging rapidly files that have interleaved changes.
