Hi

My query speicific to incremental backup/recovery with btrfs 
send/receive option available for btrfs subvolume backups.

say i have /b1/s1 subvolume and snapshot of s1 is /b1/snap1_s1

I run btrfs send /b1/snap_s1 | btrfs receive /backup where /backup is my 
backup btrfs file system.


Now I will take snapshot of s1 again ( after modifiying data in s1) 
which is /b1/snap2_s1

Using btrfs send -p snap1_s1 snap2_s2 and destination as /backup I can 
send incremental to backup store.

My question is is there a way I can have option recover files from 
/backup from incremental backup or full backup (i.e. from copy of 
snap2_s1 or snap1_s1)

And I do not want to make 2 copies of 1 full and 1 incremetal backup 
since if full backup is 1Gb and if there is 0.6Gb change for 
incremental, I would like to backup only difference for incremental 
backup but still would able to get option to recover files from full or 
incremental from backedup subvolume.

is there a way I can achieve this using current btrfs send/receive and 
other snapshot and tracking options?

thank you in advance.
