Does your afsctool support APFS? #42

I wanted to know if your tool supports APFS. Sorry to create an issue for this question, but I didn't want to format a 64TB RAID6 array as APFS and then find out I cannot compress files on it.

It should and people have been known to use it as such, but if you want to be certain it is compatible with exactly what you want to do you can always format a single drive under APFS and run some tests on there.

I use it on APFS Big Sur with no issues at all, migrated from Mojave APFS and before that was migrated from High Sierra HFS.
