As it stands, the new testing/btrfs-progs is building the same tools as the btrfs-progs-git PKGBUILD (albeit with !staticlibs), extra/btrfs-progs is still quite behind.
Once the testing package hits extra, btrfs-progs-git will be redundant (at least until Chris pulls in more commits). I guess the worth of btrfs-progs-git depends on how often Tom is planning on updating the commit ref in the official PKGBUILD and/or how often Chris pulls in changes to his tree. In general, official and official-git packages have different purposes.
btrfs-progs in official repos (testing/extra) should provides a released version. The btrfs-progs-git package is a _source_ package used to build a package with the _last_ git version (at the build time). At each release, the git package should ship the same content that the released one. Cheers, -- Sébastien "Seblu" Luttringer https://www.seblu.net GPG: 0x2072D77A
