The option is named --exclude-if-present and accepts a parameter
filename[:content]. Directories are excluded and their contents is not
backed up if they contain a file with the specified name and,
optionally, that starts with the specified content. The tagfile itself
is never excluded.
There is also a shortcut --exclude-caches that works in the same way as
the likewise-named option of tar(1): Directories are recognized as cache
if they contain a file named "CACHEDIR.TAG.
Closes #317.
By default (i.e., without profile.NoShutdownHook), profile.Start listens
for SIGINT and will stop the profile and call os.Exit(0).
restic already listens for SIGINT and runs its own cleanup handlers
before calling os.Exit(0).
As is, these handlers are racing when an interrupt occurs, and in my
experience, restic tends to win the race, resulting in an unusable
profile.
Eliminate the race and properly stop profiles on interrupt by disabling
package profile's signal handler and instead stop the profile in a
restic cleanup handler.
An exclude filter is basically a 'wildcard but foo', so even if a
childMayMatch, other children of a dir may not, therefore childMayMatch
does not matter, but we should not go down unless the dir is selected
for restore.
This improves restore performance by several orders of magniture by not
going through the whole tree recursively when we can anticipate that no
match will ever occur.
Instead of determining the password lazily during ReadPassword(), do so now in
cobra.PersistentPreRunE() so we can store the result in the globalOptions and
reuse/override when applicable without having to worry about the environment
or flag options interfering.
As `restic key add` uses the same `ReadPasswordTwice()` as the
rest of restic, it is sensitive to the environment variable
RESTIC_PASSWORD or --password-file= override.
When asking for the new key, temporary remove these 2 overrides, forcing
the password to be asked.
Switch from a function passed as a parameter to a cleanup function,
which is also executed when the test function panics, so no temporary
directories are left behind.
Errors returned from backend.LoadAll() were not handled, leading to
these fatal errors from the unpacker trying to read the size from the end of
an empty buffer:
`seeking to read header length failed: bytes.Reader.Seek: negative position`
This change takes care of returning on error, as well as showing which pack
failed to load and validating pack integrity.
Before, the fuse integration test was run and the tests were never
finished, because the testing code did not detect any errors when the
fusermount binary returned an error. This commit fixes it.
It was observed that a restic repository still contained overlapping
indexes after `rebuild-index` has been called. This is caused by
instantly forgetting that blobs have already been saved once a full
index has been written during index rebuilding.
This commit adds a (failing) test that shows the behaviour.
The method of determining if a repository exists doesn't work on Windows, since
the "url.Scheme" will contain the drive letter - "c" in "c:\backup",
so as a first step we check if the URL can be opened as a file,
and if so, we assume it is a 'local' type repository.
This changes `repository.LoadBlob()` so that a destination buffer must
be provided, which enables the fuse code to use a buffer from a
`sync.Pool`. In addition, release the buffers when the file is closed.
At the moment, the max memory usage is defined by the max file size that
is read in one go (e.g. with `cat`). It could be further optimized by
implementing a LRU caching scheme.
Since backend.ID is always a slice of constant length, use an array
instead of a slice. Mostly, arrays behave as slices, except that an
array cannot be nil, so use `*backend.ID` insteaf of `backend.ID` in
places where the absence of an ID is possible (e.g. for the Subtree of a
Node, which may not present when the node is a file node).
This change allows to directly use backend.ID as the the key for a map,
so that arbitrary data structures (e.g. a Set implemented as a
map[backend.ID]struct{}) can easily be formed.
This adds the exclude patterns used to create a backup in the snapshot,
so we can later compute statistics (like git does) on the data
structure, e.g. added/removed files etc. For that, we need the exclude
pattern.
