A new release of exfatprogs is now available as the user-space programs on Linux for the exFAT file-system to complement the in-tree kernel driver for the Microsoft exFAT support.

New to the exfatprogs 1.3 release is introducing defrag.exfat as a tool for defragmenting an exFAT file-system or assessing its fragmentation status. Thus now defragging exFAT under Linux rather than no defrag support at all or having to do so under Microsoft Windows.
