It's been a while since having anything major to talk about with the NILFS2 file-system but it looks like that could be changing. NILFS2 as a reminder is a log-structured file-system with continuous snapshotting with its NILFS predecessor having been in the mainline kernel for two decades since the mid Linux 2.6 days.

There hasn't been too much churn around the NILFS2 file-system driver or user-space tools in recent years during a time at which the likes of Btrfs, F2FS, and Bcachefs capture much of the limelight. But it looks like as we approach 2026 that NILFS2 could be seeing some renewed activity
