Snapper - Suppressing "Found Snapshot" message in terminal

Hello,
I have a simple question about Snapper. In some Arch-based distro (as Garuda Linux) I see that, when a package is installed or removed, in the terminal there is only a message like the following about the snapper snapshots:

(1/1) Performing snapper pre snapshots for the following configurations...
==> root: 200

and

(1/1) Performing snapper post snapshots for the following configurations...
==> root: 201

In my Arch Linux pure machine, when I install a package, I get also messages like:

Detecting snapshots ...
Found snapshot: 2022-11-13 18:12:55 | @/.snapshots/200/snapshot | pre    | pacman -S vim                                                            |

.... and so on

Is there a way to suppress these "Found snapshot" messages?

Re: Snapper - Suppressing "Found Snapshot" message in terminal

Found the solution: those messages are coming from grub-btrfs. Just change setting GRUB_BTRFS_SHOW_SNAPSHOTS_FOUND on /etc/default/grub-btrfs/config.
