Bugfix: 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.
