Btrfs deduplication and multiple users



Hi everyone,

My family computer has a main Btrfs partition (@ and @home sub-volumes) and several users use this computer. I currently use Jdupes to perform the deduplication of each user's home folder.

Would it be safe to perform the deduplication with a single command on /home instead of each user's folder separately? Will it create problems if the same file is found in several home folders but has different ownership and permissions?

Thank you for your help!
