I am planning to utilize btrfs for a NAS system. Now I am wondering whether it is possible to roll back things to snapshots on a file / folder level. I ask this because typically one only wants to roll back single items while keeping the state of the rest of the drive. Is there some native way to do this or if not, how to best achieve this? I read https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/476925/restore-single-files-from-a-btrfs-snapshot-without-doing-a-full-copy which seems to be a way but not that convenient. Might be the best way to do this, though.
