This file describes changes relevant to all users that are made in each
released version of restic from the perspective of the user.
Changes in 0.5.X
================
Important Changes in 0.5.1
==========================
* Sample entry, made the flux capacitor work with less than 1.21GW
Consistent forget policy
------------------------
The `forget` command was corrected to be more consistent in which snapshots are
to be forgotten. It is possible that the new code removes more snapshots than
before, so please review what would be deleted by using the `--dry-run` option.

Unified repository layout
-------------------------
Up to now the s3 backend used a special repository layout. We've decided to
unify the repository layout and implemented the default layout also for the s3
backend. For creating a new repository on s3 with the default layout, use
`restic -o s3.layout=default init`. For further commands the option is not
necessary any more, restic will automatically detect the correct layout to use.
A future version will switch to the default layout for new repositories.

Memory and time improvements for the s3 backend
-----------------------------------------------
We've updated the library used for accessing s3, switched to using a lower
level API and added caching for some requests. This lead to a decrease in
memory usage and a great speedup. In addition, we added benchmark functions for
all backends, so we can track improvements over time. The Continuous
Integration test service we're using (Travis) now runs the s3 backend tests not
only against a Minio server, but also against the Amazon s3 live service, so we
should be notified of any regressions much sooner.
