There are two reasons for this: 1) The filesystem of the mirror directory may not be able to handle types of metadata that the source filesystem can. For instance, rdiff-backup may not have root access on the destination side, so cannot set uid/gid. Or the source side may have ACLs and the destination side doesn't. Hopefully every file system can store binary data. Storing metadata separately allows us to back up anything (ok, maybe strange filenames are still a problem). 2) Metadata can be more quickly read from a file than it can by traversing the mirror directory over and over again. In many cases most of rdiff-backup's time is spent compaing metadata (like file size and modtime), trying to find differences. Reading this data sequentially from a file is significantly less taxing than listing directories and statting files all over the mirror directory. The metadata is stored in a text file, which is a bunch of records concatenated together. Each record has the format: File ... Where the lines are separated by newlines. See the code below for the field names and values.
