Hi, I would like to implement cp --reflink support for ZFSOnLinux as my GSoC project. cp --reflink is used to create a COW copy of a file, so the file will not take any disk space if it's not modified. This feature is very useful for cases like storing a lot of almost identical virtual machine im

The basic idea is to be able to easily use overlays (without layman). I believe this to be a pre-req to the "Cache Sync" idea listed on the wiki. each repo should be able to have a differently defined way of sync-ing (within predefined standards), I think they should also be capable of defining th
