LVM Snapshot Merging

,----[ Quote ]
| Mikulas Patocka announced new patches introducing snapshot merging for the 
| Linux kernel's logical volume manager. He explained, "snapshot merging allows 
| you to merge snapshot content back into the original device. The most useful 
| use for this feature is the possibility to rollback [the] state of the whole 
| computer after [a] failed package upgrade, [or an] administrator's error". 
| The patches are for the 2.6.26 kernel, with device mapper 1.02.27 and 
| LVM2.2.02.39.
