Integrating btrfs snapshots with pacman

I have written a script that wraps package upgrades with btrfs snapshots.

Additional features include:

  • If /boot is on a separate partition, and the kernel is being upgraded, it backs up /boot (command line flag also available)

  • Logging of all errors and a list of upgraded packages (with version numbers pre and post upgrade)

  • If upgrade is interupted, offers to delete pre snapshot

The script can be found here.

Please try it out and leave feedback
