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.
