From e60547db04ff30b9341386837a35ffb15c3c7789 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Shane M Seymour Date: Fri, 27 Feb 2015 18:52:51 +0100 Subject: tail,stat: improve support for the IBRIX file system Note that IBRIX used to have a different magic number 0x013111A7 instead of the current 0x013111A8. However, the former is no longer used and the version of IBRIX it was used in is really ancient, so it's extremely unlikely anyone is still using it. Therefore, just add the newer magic number. Mark IBRIX as a 'remote' file system type as inotify support had never been officially tested with it. * src/stat.c (human_fstype): Add file system ID definition. * NEWS: Mention the improvement.
