I found a change for Fedora 45:

Changes/BtrfsWithFullSystemSnapshots - Fedora Project Wiki

I couldn’t find if this change found its way into the beta of Fedora 45. Does anyone know details about that change?

This one looks like it was proposed but at some stage not progressed:

Targeted release: Fedora 45

Last updated: 2025-11-05

Tracker bug: <will be assigned by the Wrangler>

This is the list of accepted F45 changes.

This doesn’t seem to have been submitted to FESCO as far as I can tell. Tagging change owners as they may have more information. @ngompa @bmr

Normally a proposed change has a big yellow banner at the top stating it’s only a proposal.

No - the upstream work to add the btrfs plugin to snapm (a prerequisite for the overall feature) was not completed in time to submit this for F45. We plan to try again for F46.

I wonder if the feature is in some odd state because it’s been hanging around so long? It was originally created for F29.

It was written long before the template was updated with the banner. Eventually I’ll refresh the change to the latest template.

Thank you all for the clarification! :+1:

It would be more than great to get this feature. Looking forward to it. :slight_smile:

Thanks in advance! :wink:

Very interested in this feature, hope it makes it in 46!
