Thank you for working on this. > The command group "btrfs replace" is added with three commands: > - btrfs replace start srcdev|srcdevid targetdev [-Bfr] mount_point > - btrfs replace status mount_point [-1] > - btrfs replace cancel mount_point Why isn´t this under btrfs device replace {start,status,cancel}? Well I see a pattern. btrfs balance is also not under btrfs filesystem balance. Well its still optional there, but I think this is deprecated. I do not recall the reason right now, why btrfs balance was moved one hierarchy up, but as a user if I wanted to do something with a device, I think I´d just look up the sub commands of btrfs device. And wouldn´t find the replace command there. Then if I accidentally found it, I may be confused as to what is being replaced there. Well the parameter names srcdev / targetdev might give me a hint, but still, this doesn´t make the impression of a predictable and consistent user interface here.
