Linus Torvalds has finally come to a decision following his plans to part ways with the Bcachefs file-system and then not merging any Bcachefs updates for Linux 6.17.
Linus Torvalds updated the maintainers file for Bcachefs and now reflects its upstream state as "externally maintained" rather than "supported".
The Bcachefs code is still present in the mainline Linux kernel likely to prevent users from having any immediate fall-out in Bcachefs file-systems they may already be using, but it doesn't look like Linus Torvalds will be honoring any new Bcachefs pull requests in the near future.
He remarked with the patch, "MAINTAINERS: mark bcachefs externally maintained. As per many long discussion threads, public and private."
