 2.6.x.
 
 A more up-to-date picture would be really appreciated.

I rebased diff branches and pushed them out to github:

nilfs-utils  git://github.com/konis/nilfs-utils.git  (diff-v2 branch)
kernel   git://github.com/konis/nilfs2.git   (diffapi-v2 branch)

These are still experimental and need disk format change.

Dear Ryusuke-san,

Thank you for the updated code, this was really what I needed.

I have managed to install it successfully on Ubuntu 14.04 by just
adding CFLAGS='-pthread -lm'.

Using the experimental version with reformatted drives, versioning
works fine but unfortunately calls to chcp and nilfs-diff either don't
do anything or hang indefinitely without any error feedback. I am
sorry for bothering, but do you have any clue of what might be
happening? I made sure to unistall all the non-experimental
nilfs-tools beforehand.

Best,
hugo
