Hi,

 I don''t know if it''s the good place to ask my question.
 I''m a french student who studies IT.
 I''m working on a project with the btrfs filesystem on Gentoo 64 bits.
 I have to create snapshots and to compare the differences between them
 (new files, deleted files, modified files...).
 So i tried to use btrfs send -i old-snap new-snap.
 To make this command working i created my snapshots thanks to the -r
 option.
 However i only see on the standard output many weird characters but i
 don''t understand them.
 I know it''s still in developement but is it working ?
 I tried with kernel 3.6.2 and 3.7.0

 Thanks for help.
