Duplicity v0.4.3 Release Notes
Release Date: 2007-08-20 // over 16 years ago-
All the changes in RC1 through RC12 plus:
🚚 Move get_password() to Backend class to standardize.
🛠 Fix problem with ftpBackend to create target directory if needed. Note: this creates only one level.
⬇️ Dropped ssh-command and added ssh-options to allow users to add options to the scp and sftp commmands.
✂ Removed use of tempfile.TemporaryFile(). This fixes the 🏁 restore problem on Windows that was due to Python bug 1776696 reported on Sourceforge.
🛠 Fixed Debian Bug#437694: Make bzip2 compression optional. 0️⃣ The default is not to do bzip2 compression. To use bzip2 ➕ add the following command line option: --gpg-options='--compress-algo=bzip2 --bzip2-compress-level=9' Note: do not add spaces in the string value.
🛠 Fixed bug 20764 - unable to use port in ssh backend. https://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/?20764
Remove ssh_command option, add ssh_options. This adds options to the scp and sftp commands that are used by the ssh backend.
🔄 Change ssh backend to send 'quit' instead of EOF when using sftp. This allows it to run under cron as long as the password is supplied non-interactively.
🔄 Change ssh backend to not pass :port part of URL to scp or sftp. We already supply -oPort=xx for port.
