* Package name    : pyreflink
  Version         : 0.2.1
  Upstream Author : Ruben De Smet
* URL             : https://gitlab.com/rubdos/pyreflink
* License         : Expat
  Programming Lang: Python (CFFI C extensions)
  Description     : Python Library wrapping platform-specific reflink implementations

 Python wrapper around the ``reflink`` system calls.
 .
 Features:
 .
  * Btrfs, XFS, OCFS2 ``reflink`` support. Btrfs is tested the most.
  * Apple macOS APFS ``clonefile`` support. Little testing, be careful. It
    might eat data.
  * A convenience method that checks support for reflinks within a specific
    directory.

I intend to maintain this under the Debian Python Team, as a dependency
of the beets testsuite.
