These are policy-driven snapshot management and replication tools which use OpenZFS for underlying next-gen storage. (Btrfs support plans are shelved unless and until btrfs becomes reliable.)
$ syncoid --version
/usr/sbin/syncoid version 2.2.0

When there is no newer snapshot on the source, syncoid only logs the newest discovered snapshot and that there’s no newer one:
NEWEST SNAPSHOT: autosnap_2024-07-26_18:45:01_frequently

From what I can see, the affected dataset is never logged however. It would be very nice to be able to see which dataset is affected.
