Description Marian Csontos 2021-05-06 15:56:30 UTC
Version 0.9.0 apart from various small bug fixes introduces two new tools - thin_metadata_{pack,unpack} - these are intended to help where it is impossible to send whole (up to 16GB) metadata to support for inspection or manual repair.

Usage is simple:

1. pack metadata:

    # thin_metadata_pack -i METADATA_DEVICE -o PACKED_FILE

2. unpack metadata:

    # thin_metadata_unpack -i PACKED_FILE -o METADATA_DEVICE
