Hi,

The help message of the btrfsctl command does not tell anything about the deletion of a subvolume. See patch below.

Kind regards,
Andreas

We have a new command "btrfs subvolume delete <path>" which can be shortened even as far as "btrfs s d <path>".

Are we going to keep the btrfsctl program indefinitely when we have a replacement in the "btrfs" program?
