From 86608f787ee80e9c9bfa1fe9098b2b0fc8116fcc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Krempa Date: Wed, 5 Jun 2019 13:06:58 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] virsh: undefine: Rename --delete-snapshots to --delete-storage-volume-snapshots MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit The old flag name confused some users into thinking it's the correct way to undefine a VM with libvirt (not storage volume) snapshots. The correct flag in that case is way less obvious: --snapshots-metadata. Rename the flag (by adding an alias) to something which will promote looking up the actual purpose of the flag.
