The command "sudo btrfs property get ${path-to-btrfs_object}" is used to retrieve the value of a specific property for a given Btrfs object in a Linux system. Here's how it works:
-
"sudo" is a command that allows the user to execute a certain command with administrative privileges. It is often used to run commands as the "root" user or another superuser.
-
"btrfs" is the command-line utility for managing and interacting with Btrfs file systems, which is a modern and scalable filesystem in Linux.
-
"property get" is an option provided by the "btrfs" command-line utility. It allows you to retrieve the value of a specific property for a Btrfs object.
-
"${path-to-btrfs_object}" is a placeholder that needs to be replaced with the actual path to the Btrfs object for which you want to retrieve the property value. This could be a directory, file, or other Btrfs-specific object.
By running this command with the appropriate Btrfs object path, you can view the value of a specific property assigned to that object. The output will show the property name and its corresponding value.
