This is now corrected. + + https://github.com/restic/restic/issues/1999#issuecomment-433737921 + https://github.com/restic/restic/pull/2068 + + * Bugfix #2095: Consistently use local time for snapshots times + + By default snapshots created with restic backup were set to local time, but when the --time flag + was used the provided timestamp was parsed as UTC. With this change all snapshots times are set + to local time. + + https://github.com/restic/restic/pull/2095 + + * Enhancement #1605: Concurrent restore + + This change significantly improves restore performance, especially when using + high-latency remote repositories like B2. + + The implementation now uses several concurrent threads to download and process multiple + remote files concurrently. To further reduce restore time, each remote file is downloaded + using a single repository request. + + https://github.com/restic/restic/issues/1605 + https://github.com/restic/restic/pull/1719 + + * Enhancement #2089: Increase granularity of the "keep within" retention policy + + The `keep-within` option of the `forget` command now accepts time ranges with an hourly + granularity. For example, running `restic forget --keep-within 3d12h` will keep all the + snapshots made within three days and twelve hours from the time of the latest snapshot. + + https://github.com/restic/restic/issues/2089 + https://github.com/restic/restic/pull/2090 + + * Enhancement #2097: Add key hinting + + Added a new option `--key-hint` and corresponding environment variable `RESTIC_KEY_HINT`. + The key hint is a key ID to try decrypting first, before other keys in the repository. + + This change will benefit repositories with many keys; if the correct key hint is supplied then + restic only needs to check one key. If the key hint is incorrect (the key does not exist, or the + password is incorrect) then restic will check all keys, as usual. + + https://github.com/restic/restic/issues/2097 + + * Enhancement #2017: Mount: Enforce FUSE Unix permissions with allow-other + + The fuse mount (`restic mount`) now lets the kernel check the permissions of the files within + snapshots (this is done through the `DefaultPermissions` FUSE option) when the option + `--allow-other` is specified. + + To restore the old behavior, we've added the `--no-default-permissions` option. This allows + all users that have access to the mount point to access all files within the snapshots. + + https://github.com/restic/restic/pull/2017 + + * Enhancement #2070: Make all commands display timestamps in local time + + Restic used to drop the timezone information from displayed timestamps, it now converts + timestamps to local time before printing them so the times can be easily compared to. + + https://github.com/restic/restic/pull/2070 + + * Enhancement #2085: Allow --files-from to be specified multiple times + + Before, restic took only the last file specified with `--files-from` into account, this is now + corrected. + + https://github.com/restic/restic/issues/2085 + https://github.com/restic/restic/pull/2086 + + * Enhancement #2094: Run command to get password + + We've added the `--password-command` option which allows specifying a command that restic + runs every time the password for the repository is needed, so it can be integrated with a + password manager or keyring. The option can also be set via the environment variable + `$RESTIC_PASSWORD_COMMAND`. + + https://github.com/restic/restic/pull/2094 + + Changelog for restic 0.9.3 (2018-10-13) ======================================= @@ -20,6 +148,7 @@ Summary * Enh #1920: Vendor dependencies with Go 1.11 Modules * Enh #1949: Add new command `self-update` * Enh #1953: Ls: Add JSON output support for restic ls cmd + * Enh #1962: Stream JSON output for ls command Details ------- @@ -155,6 +284,18 @@ Details https://github.com/restic/restic/pull/1953 + * Enhancement #1962: Stream JSON output for ls command + + The `ls` command now supports JSON output with the global `--json` flag, and this change + streams out JSON messages one object at a time rather than en entire array buffered in memory + before encoding.
