Now you can include/exclude files session-by-session. +Fixed ownership compare bug: In 0.11.1, backups where the destination +side was not root would preserve ownership information by recording it +in the metadata file. However, mere ownership changes would not +trigger creation of new increments. This has been fixed. + +Added the --no-inode-compare switch. You probably don't need to use +it though. + +If a special file cannot be created on the destination side, a 0 +length regular file will be written instead as a placeholder. +(Restores should work fine because of the metadata file.) + +Yet another error handling strategy (hopefully this is the last one +for a while, because this stuff isn't very exciting, and takes a long +time to write): + + All recoverable errors are classified into one of three groups: + ListErrors, UpdateErrors, and SpecialFileErrors. rdiff-backup's + reaction to each error is more formally defined (see the error + policy page, currently at + http://rdiff-backup.stanford.edu/error_policy.html). + + rdiff-backup makes no attempt to recover or clean up after + unrecoverable errors. + +Improved error logging. Instead of the old haphazard reporting +method, which sometimes didn't indicate the file an error occurred on, +now all recoverable errors are reported in a standard format and also +written to the error_log.<time>.data file in the rdiff-backup-data +directory. + + New in v0.11.1 (2002/12/31) --------------------------- |
