From 25c11557710ac95084a775bf3a5bdd97dff70c1e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Colin Percival Date: Fri, 20 Mar 2015 19:40:19 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] When creating VM images, copy the contents of the created filesystem into a new filesystem before packaging it into a disk image. This prevents "remnants" of deleted files from showing up in the VM images, and reduces their compressed size (by about 10% for the cloudware images) as a result.
