New to NILFS2
Hi everyone
I started using NILFS2 version 2.0.14 this month on Ubuntu 8.04 and 8.10 distros (2.6.24-24-generic 64 bits), so far so good.
I looked at the new's archives and find some interesting questions about deleting more than one CP at a time. Can I use this feature on my distro or do I need to recompile nilfs-tools? May this feature be included on Ubuntu 9.04?
Best regards and congrats for the excellent job!

I don't belive this is in Jaunty yet since this only recently went in in Ryusuke-san's git tree. So yes, you would have to recompile this yourself (easily done). Beware however that deleting the checpoints are only cosmetic at the moment (i.e. you won't see them in a 'lscp' output) and you still need to wait for the cleanerd to reclaim space.

Unfortunately I don't have contact with Ubuntu maintainers, so I cannot mention the release plan.
But, yes, the CP deletion feature is available from our git repo. The belief instruction is shown in the following page:
I also recommend you to apply the current head of nilfs2-module.git available if you use the git repo since it includes an important performance improvement patch. Anyway, I'm planning to release both updates next week unless I'm busy.

Thanks for the tip, I compiled the tools and it worked, following the site's instructions. There is any directions to build the module?
Best regards,

If you don't want to recompile , Just use seq with xargs :
#seq <start> <end> | xargs rmcp
Or If you don't want to type a lot : (untested)
function rmcpg {
seq $1 $2 | xargs rmcp
}
There's probably a better way If I actually knew how to script.
