Feature/omitxattr #22

Closed benaryorg closed 4 years ago

benaryorg commented 4 years ago

This pull request adds the omitxattr flag which disables copying of extended attributes from the lowerdir. It also adds an autodetection mechanism to determine whether the lowerdir supports extended attributes, which automatically enables omitxattr if lgetxattr(2) fails with ENOTSUP.

Great to see this feature merged, thanks! I can continue using the master or specific commit for now, but do you have an estimate for a version bump?
