Description Radio Młodych Bandytów 2012-02-05 18:10:06 UTC

"The traditional mode uses the same way as the old unionfs for backward compatibility"
This text appears before any other mention about the way unionfs works. I think that majority of people reading this would like to know *what* does the option do first and historic reason later, if at all.
