Running `forget --keep-tags <invalid>`, where `<invalid>` is a tag that does
|
|
|
|
|
not exist in the repository, would remove all snapshots. This is especially
|
2024-05-18 22:26:12 +00:00
|
|
|
problematic if the tag name contains a typo.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The `forget` command now fails with an error if all snapshots in a snapshot
|
|
|
|
|
group would be deleted. This prevents the above example from deleting all
|
|
|
|
|
snapshots.

|
It is possible to temporarily disable the new check by setting the environment
|
|
|
|
|
variable `RESTIC_FEATURES=safe-forget-keep-tags=false`. Note that this feature
|
|
|
|
|
flag will be removed in the next minor restic version.
