Details
|
||||
-------
|
||||
|
||||
* Bugfix #1506: Limit bandwith at the http.RoundTripper for HTTP based backends
|
||||
|
||||
https://github.com/restic/restic/issues/1506
|
||||
https://github.com/restic/restic/pull/1511
|
||||
|
||||
* Bugfix #1512: Restore directory permissions as the last step
|
||||
|
||||
This change allows restoring into directories that were not writable during backup. Before,
|
||||
restic created the directory, set the read-only mode and then failed to create files in the
|
||||
directory. This change now restores the directory (with its permissions) as the very last
|
||||
step.
|
||||
|
||||
https://github.com/restic/restic/issues/1512
|
||||
https://github.com/restic/restic/pull/1536
|
||||
|
||||
* Bugfix #1528: Correctly create missing subdirs in data/
|
||||
|
||||
https://github.com/restic/restic/issues/1528
|
||||
https://github.com/restic/restic/pull/1529
|
||||
|
||||
* Bugfix #1590: Strip spaces for lines read via --files-from
|
||||
|
||||
Leading and trailing spaces in lines read via `--files-from` are now stripped, so it behaves
|
||||
the same as with lines read via `--exclude-file`.
|
||||
|
||||
https://github.com/restic/restic/issues/1590
|
||||
https://github.com/restic/restic/pull/1613
|
||||
|
||||
* Bugfix #1589: Complete intermediate index upload
|
||||
|
||||
After a user posted a comprehensive report of what he observed, we were able to find a bug and
|
||||
correct it: During backup, restic uploads so-called "intermediate" index files. When the
|
||||
backup finishes during a transfer of such an intermediate index, the upload is cancelled, but
|
||||
the backup is finished without an error. This leads to an inconsistent state, where the
|
||||
snapshot references data that is contained in the repo, but is not referenced in any index.
|
||||
|
||||
The situation can be resolved by building a new index with `rebuild-index`, but looks very
|
||||
confusing at first. Since all the data got uploaded to the repo successfully, there was no risk
|
||||
of data loss, just minor inconvenience for our users.
|
||||
|
||||
https://github.com/restic/restic/pull/1589
|
||||
|
||||
* Bugfix #1594: Google Cloud Storage: Use generic HTTP transport
|
||||
|
||||
It was discovered that the Google Cloud Storage backend did not use the generic HTTP transport,
|
||||
so things such as bandwidth limiting with `--limit-upload` did not work. This is resolved now.
|
||||
|
||||
https://github.com/restic/restic/pull/1594
|
||||
|
||||
* Bugfix #1595: Backup: Remove bandwidth display
|
||||
|
||||
This commit removes the bandwidth displayed during backup process. It is misleading and
|
||||
seldomly correct, because it's neither the "read bandwidth" (only for the very first backup)
|
||||
nor the "upload bandwidth". Many users are confused about (and rightly so), c.f. #1581, #1033,
|
||||
#1591
|
||||
|
||||
We'll eventually replace this display with something more relevant when the new archiver code
|
||||
is ready.
|
||||
|
||||
https://github.com/restic/restic/pull/1595
|
||||
|
||||
* Enhancement #1522: Add support for TLS client certificate authentication
|
||||
|
||||
Support has been added for using a TLS client certificate for authentication to HTTP based
|
||||
backend. A file containing the PEM encoded private key and certificate can be set using the
|
||||
`--tls-client-cert` option.
|
||||
|
||||
https://github.com/restic/restic/issues/1522
|
||||
https://github.com/restic/restic/pull/1524
|
||||
|
||||
* Enhancement #1541: Reduce number of remote requests during repository check
|
||||
|
||||
This change eliminates redundant remote repository calls and significantly improves
|
||||
repository check time.
|
||||
|
||||
https://github.com/restic/restic/issues/1541
|
||||
https://github.com/restic/restic/pull/1548
|
||||
|
||||
* Enhancement #1567: Reduce number of backend requests for rebuild-index and prune
|
||||
|
||||
We've found a way to reduce then number of backend requests for the `rebuild-index` and `prune`
|
||||
operations. This significantly speeds up the operations for high-latency backends.
|
||||
|
||||
https://github.com/restic/restic/issues/1567
|
||||
https://github.com/restic/restic/pull/1574
|
||||
https://github.com/restic/restic/pull/1575
|
||||
|
||||
* Enhancement #1507: Only reload snapshots once per minute for fuse mount
|
||||
|
||||
https://github.com/restic/restic/pull/1507
|
||||
|
||||
* Enhancement #1538: Reduce memory allocations for querying the index
|
||||
|
||||
This change reduces the internal memory allocations when the index data structures in memory
|
||||
are queried if a blob (part of a file) already exists in the repo. It should speed up backup a bit,
|
||||
and maybe even reduce RAM usage.
|
||||
|
||||
https://github.com/restic/restic/pull/1538
|
||||
|
||||
* Enhancement #1549: Speed up querying across indices and scanning existing files
|
||||
|
||||
This change increases the whenever a blob (part of a file) is searched for in a restic
|
||||
repository. This will reduce cpu usage some when backing up files already backed up by restic.
|
||||
Cpu usage is further decreased when scanning files.
|
||||
|
||||
https://github.com/restic/restic/pull/1549
|
||||
|
||||
* Enhancement #1554: Fuse/mount: Correctly handle EOF, add template option
|
||||
|
||||
We've added the `--snapshot-template` string, which can be used to specify a template for a
|
||||
snapshot directory. In addition, accessing data after the end of a file via the fuse mount is now
|
||||
handled correctly.
|
||||
|
||||
https://github.com/restic/restic/pull/1554
|
||||
|
||||
* Enhancement #1564: Don't terminate ssh on SIGINT
|
||||
|
||||
We've reworked the code which runs the `ssh` login for the sftp backend so that it can prompt for a
|
||||
password (if needed) but does not exit when the user presses CTRL+C (SIGINT) e.g. during
|
||||
backup. This allows restic to properly shut down when it receives SIGINT and remove the lock
|
||||
file from the repo, afterwards exiting the `ssh` process.
|
||||
|
||||
https://github.com/restic/restic/pull/1564
|
||||
https://github.com/restic/restic/pull/1588
|
||||
|
||||
* Enhancement #1579: Retry Backend.List() in case of errors
|
||||
|
||||
https://github.com/restic/restic/pull/1579
|
||||
|
||||
* Enhancement #1584: Limit index file size
|
||||
|
||||
Before, restic would create a single new index file on `prune` or `rebuild-index`, this may
|
||||
lead to memory problems when this huge index is created and loaded again. We're now limiting the
|
||||
size of the index file, and split newly created index files into several smaller ones. This
|
||||
allows restic to be more memory-efficient.
