There are man pages for each of the tools in the btrfs package,
btrfs-progs.
/usr/share/man/man8/btrfs-image.8.gz
/usr/share/man/man8/btrfs-show.8.gz
/usr/share/man/man8/btrfsck.8.gz
/usr/share/man/man8/btrfsctl.8.gz
/usr/share/man/man8/mkfs.btrfs.8.gz
Because of your inquiry, I also did some research. Btrfs sounded like
the bees knees, but I got cold feet when I read all the warnings about
it being suitable only for benchmarking and testing, and not to run any
production or even slightly valuable information on it. I was going to
run F14 on it when I install it. Think I'll stick with ext4 now. Or
maybe not. :-)
