2010-01-13	qemu-img rebase	Kevin Wolf	1	-0/+6
	This adds a rebase subcommand to qemu-img which allows to change the backing file of an image. In default mode, both the current and the new backing file need to exist, and after the rebase, the COW image is guaranteed to have the same guest visible content as before. To achieve this, old and new backing file are compared and, if necessary, data is copied from the old backing file into the COW image. With -u an unsafe mode is enabled that doesn't require the backing files to exist. It merely changes the backing file reference in the COW image. This is useful for renaming or moving the backing file. The user is responsible to make sure that the new backing file has no changes compared to the old one, or corruption may occur.

2009-11-09	Documentation: Don't mention old qemu-img options	Kevin Wolf	1	-4/+4
	The old options are still supported for compatibility, but they are inconsistent (for example create -b vs. convert -B for backing files) and incomplete (-F only exists for create) which tends to confuse people. Remove all references to the old options from the documentation to guide users to the more consistent -o options.

2009-06-07	Use hxtool for qemu-img command list	Stuart Brady	1	-0/+47
	Use hxtool to generate the 'command syntax' section of qemu-img's help message, and the corresponding section of the texinfo documentation. This has the side-effect of adding 'check' to this list of commands in the texinfo documentation. Signed-off-by: Stuart Brady <stuart.brady@gmail.com>
