Rdiff-backup v0.7.3 Release Notes
Release Date: 2002-04-29 // about 22 years ago-
🛠 Fixed broken remote operation in v0.7.2 by applying (a variant of) ✅ Daniel Robbins' patch. Also fixed associated bug in test set.
🛠 Fixed bug recognizing --[include|exclude]-filelist-stdin options, and IndexError bug reading some filelists.
--force is no longer necessary if the target directory is empty.
--include/--exclude/etc now work for restoring as they do for backing up.
🌲 Raised verbosity level for traceback output - if long log error messages are annoying you, set verbosity to 2. Will come up with a 👍 better logging system later.
🛠 May have fixed a problem encountered by Matthew Farrellee and Kevin Spicer wherein the _session_info_list information was stored on the 💻 wrong computer. This could cause rdiff-backup to fail when running after another backup that failed for a different reason. May backport this fix to 0.6.0 later.
🛠 May have fixed a problem also noticed by Matthew Farrellee which can cause rdiff-backup to exit when a directory changes into a non-directory file while rdiff-backup is processing the directory. (May also apply to 0.6.0).
🛠 Fixed a bug noticed by Jamie Heilman where restoring could fail if a recent rdiff-backup process which produced the backup set was aborted while processing a new directory. (May also apply to 0.6.0)
