 add, or a tar archive (either uncompressed tar or gzip-compressed

-leave space so that more files can be added later.  Virt-make-fs
-defaults to minimizing the extra space, but you can use the I<--size>
-flag to leave space in the filesystem if you want it.

-An alternative way to leave extra space but not make the output image
-any bigger is to use an alternative disk image format (instead of the
-default "raw" format).  Using I<--format=qcow2> will use the native
-QEmu/KVM qcow2 image format (check your hypervisor supports this
-before using it).  This allows you to choose a large I<--size> but the
-extra space won't actually be allocated in the image until you try to
-store something in it.

-Don't forget that you can also use local commands including
-L<resize2fs(8)> and L<virt-resize(1)> to resize existing filesystems,
