Contributing

Because this codebase is developed without knowledge of the Linux btrfs source code and is released under a more permissive license(s) than GPLv2, development is heavily dependent on information released on the btrfs wiki and reverse engineering the effects of operations made by btrfs-progs and other utilities. As a result, contributions to this codebase must strictly follow the same siloed approach.
