If I wanted to rsync the contents of /path/to/foo/ to another computer, rsync would unintenionally pick up the contents of /path/to/foo/.zfs/, so it's best to have .zfs hidden most of the time. Other commands such as cp should also have this problem. -- Denny Lin _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
