Ned Deily <n...@python.org> added the comment: More background: APFS became available in macOS 10.12 although not used by default. But with the current macOS 10.13 (High Sierra), root file systems on certain devices, such as SSDs, are automatically migrated from HFS+ to APFS so are much more likely to be seen starting in 10.13 and, in general, there is no easy way of knowing what type of FS a particular file resides on.
