Hi Lubos,
you should definitely put some description into PATCH 1/1 as well -
that's what will eventually end up in the git repository and it
should contain description so that people know what it is all about.
Having e2fsprogs debugfs undelete command is actually a very good
idea. But I think this should be very easy to do with your current
program, or in addition to what you currently have since you're
already using ext2fs library.
Thanks!
