# Snapper-Rollback
Python script to rollback BTRFS systems using the [ArchWiki suggested subvolume layout](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Snapper#Suggested_filesystem_layout)
## Installation
### ArchLinux

```
## Config file
Edit `/etc/snapper-rollback.conf` and make sure all the settings have the right
