Hi, I saw that the `a` answer in the `remotes/origin/integration-20140729` branch only allows to skip the following question/interaction, for the next after the next, the question is asked again. -Kalle Am 29.07.2014 um 03:03 schrieb Karl-Philipp Richter:
Hi Justin, thanks for your help. I guess the patch will be available in the repos, soon, so I'll work with `yes` in the meantime because I'm not too familiar with patching in this form. Best regards, Karl-P. Richter Am 29.07.2014 um 02:09 schrieb Justin Maggard:quoted

Hi together, In the current HEAD (3f11e516db629f7a662bfd6376231817b4e34cc9) of https://github.com/kdave/btrfs-progs.git (I assume this list is the right address because I got some hints to the project from here) the btrfs restore subcommand asks often (up to 100 time during restauration of 400 GB) We seem to be looping a lot on /a/path/to/our/precious, do you want to keep going on ? (y/N): which can't be suppressed with the `-i` option (which might be right because it's technically not an error), but I can't see how to get around this. Am I missing something? Otherwise it would be nice to have an extra option maybe with an argument how often "we" are looping on a file before the command asks for interaction. Best regards, Karl-P. RichterI just posted the patch we use to get around that. Or, if you don't want to build a modified btrfs-progs, you could always use the `yes` command to press y for you. -Justin
