Log message:
Updated py-borgbackup to 1.0.2.

Version 1.0.2
-------------

Bug fixes:

- fix malfunction and potential corruption on (nowadays rather rare) big-endian
  architectures or bi-endian archs in (rare) BE mode. #886, #889

  cache resync / index merge was malfunctioning due to this, potentially
  leading to data loss. borg info had cosmetic issues (displayed wrong values).

  note: all (widespread) little-endian archs (like x86/x64) or bi-endian archs
  in (widespread) LE mode (like ARMEL, MIPSEL, ...) were NOT affected.
- add overflow and range checks for 1st (special) uint32 of the hashindex
  values, switch from int32 to uint32.
- fix so that refcount will never overflow, but just stick to max. value after
  a overflow would have occured.
- borg delete: fix --cache-only for broken caches, #874

  Makes --cache-only idempotent: it won't fail if the cache is already deleted.
- fixed borg create --one-file-system erroneously traversing into other
  filesystems (if starting fs device number was 0), #873
- workround a bug in Linux fadvise FADV_DONTNEED, #907

Other changes:

- better test coverage for hashindex, incl. overflow testing, checking correct
  computations so endianness issues would be discovered.
- reproducible doc for ProgressIndicator*,  make the build reproducible.
- use latest llfuse for vagrant machines
- docs:

  - use /path/to/repo in examples, fixes #901
  - fix confusing usage of "repo" as archive name (use "arch")

Log message:
Update py-borgbackup to 1.0.1.

Version 1.0.1
-------------

New features:

Usually there are no new features in a bugfix release, but these were added
due to their high impact on security/safety/speed or because they are fixes
also:

- append-only mode for repositories, #809, #36 (see docs)
- borg create: add --ignore-inode option to make borg detect unmodified files
  even if your filesystem does not have stable inode numbers (like sshfs and
  possibly CIFS).
- add options --warning, --error, --critical for missing log levels, #826.
  it's not recommended to suppress warnings or errors, but the user may decide
  this on his own.
  note: --warning is not given to borg serve so a <= 1.0.0 borg will still
  work as server (it is not needed as it is the default).
  do not use --error or --critical when using a <= 1.0.0 borg server.

Bug fixes:

- fix silently skipping EIO, #748
- add context manager for Repository (avoid orphan repository locks), #285
- do not sleep for >60s while waiting for lock, #773
- unpack file stats before passing to FUSE
- fix build on illumos
- don't try to backup doors or event ports (Solaris and derivates)
- remove useless/misleading libc version display, #738
- test suite: reset exit code of persistent archiver, #844
- RemoteRepository: clean up pipe if remote open() fails
- Remote: don't print tracebacks for Error exceptions handled downstream, #792
- if BORG_PASSPHRASE is present but wrong, don't prompt for password, but fail
  instead, #791
- ArchiveChecker: move "orphaned objects check skipped" to INFO log \ 
level, #826
- fix capitalization, add ellipses, change log level to debug for 2 messages,
  #798

Other changes:

- update llfuse requirement, llfuse 1.0 works
- update OS / dist packages on build machines, #717
- prefer showing --info over -v in usage help, #859
- docs:

  - fix cygwin requirements (gcc-g++)
  - document how to debug / file filesystem issues, #664
  - fix reproducible build of api docs
  - RTD theme: CSS !important overwrite, #727
  - Document logo font. Recreate logo png. Remove GIMP logo file.

Version 1.0.0
-------------

The major release number change (0.x -> 1.x) indicates bigger incompatible
changes, please read the compatibility notes, adapt / test your scripts and
check your backup logs.

Compatibility notes:

- drop support for python 3.2 and 3.3, require 3.4 or 3.5, #221 #65 #490
  note: we provide binaries that include python 3.5.1 and everything else
  needed. they are an option in case you are stuck with < 3.4 otherwise.
- change encryption to be on by default (using "repokey" mode)
- moved keyfile keys from ~/.borg/keys to ~/.config/borg/keys,
  you can either move them manually or run "borg upgrade <REPO>"
- remove support for --encryption=passphrase,
  use borg migrate-to-repokey to switch to repokey mode, #97
- remove deprecated --compression <number>,
  use --compression zlib,<number> instead
  in case of 0, you could also use --compression none
- remove deprecated --hourly/daily/weekly/monthly/yearly
  use --keep-hourly/daily/weekly/monthly/yearly instead
- remove deprecated --do-not-cross-mountpoints,
  use --one-file-system instead
- disambiguate -p option, #563:

  - -p now is same as --progress
  - -P now is same as --prefix
- remove deprecated "borg verify",
  use "borg extract --dry-run" instead
- cleanup environment variable semantics, #355
  the environment variables used to be "yes sayers" when set, this was
  conceptually generalized to "automatic answerers" and they just give \ 
their
  value as answer (as if you typed in that value when being asked).
  See the "usage" / "Environment Variables" section of the \ 
docs for details.
- change the builtin default for --chunker-params, create 2MiB chunks, #343
  --chunker-params new default: 19,23,21,4095 - old default: 10,23,16,4095

  one of the biggest issues with borg < 1.0 (and also attic) was that it had a
  default target chunk size of 64kiB, thus it created a lot of chunks and thus
  also a huge chunk management overhead (high RAM and disk usage).

  please note that the new default won't change the chunks that you already
  have in your repository. the new big chunks do not deduplicate with the old
  small chunks, so expect your repo to grow at least by the size of every
  changed file and in the worst case (e.g. if your files cache was lost / is
  not used) by the size of every file (minus any compression you might use).

  in case you want to immediately see a much lower resource usage (RAM / disk)
  for chunks management, it might be better to start with a new repo than
  continuing in the existing repo (with an existing repo, you'ld have to wait
  until all archives with small chunks got pruned to see a lower resource
  usage).

  if you used the old --chunker-params default value (or if you did not use
  --chunker-params option at all) and you'ld like to continue using small
  chunks (and you accept the huge resource usage that comes with that), just
  explicitly use borg create --chunker-params=10,23,16,4095.
- archive timestamps: the 'time' timestamp now refers to archive creation
  start time (was: end time), the new 'time_end' timestamp refers to archive
  creation end time. This might affect prune if your backups take rather long.
  if you give a timestamp via cli this is stored into 'time', therefore it now
  needs to mean archive creation start time.

New features:

- implement password roundtrip, #695

Bug fixes:

- remote end does not need cache nor keys directories, do not create them, #701
- added retry counter for passwords, #703

Other changes:

  as borg info, #651
- llfuse compatibility fixes (now compatible with: 0.40, 0.41, 0.42)

Other changes:

- it is now possible to use "pip install borgbackup[fuse]" to automatically
  install the llfuse dependency using the correct version requirement
  for it. you still need to care about having installed the FUSE / build
  related OS package first, though, so that building llfuse can succeed.
- Vagrant: drop Ubuntu Precise (12.04) - does not have Python >= 3.4
- Vagrant: use pyinstaller v3.1.1 to build binaries

encryption key mode)
- implement --short for borg list REPO, #611
- implement --list for borg extract (consistency with borg create)
- borg serve: overwrite client's --restrict-to-path with ssh forced command's
  option value (but keep everything else from the client commandline), #544
- use $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/keys for keyfile keys (~/.config/borg/keys), #515
- "borg upgrade" moves the keyfile keys to the new location
- display both archive creation start and end time in "borg info", #627

Bug fixes:

- normalize trailing slashes for the repository path, #606
- Cache: fix exception handling in __init__, release lock, #610

Other changes:

- suppress unneeded exception context (PEP 409), simpler tracebacks
- removed special code needed to deal with imperfections / incompatibilities /
  missing stuff in py 3.2/3.3, simplify code that can be done simpler in 3.4
- removed some version requirements that were kept on old versions because
  newer did not support py 3.2 any more
- use some py 3.4+ stdlib code instead of own/openssl/pypi code:

  - use os.urandom instead of own cython openssl RAND_bytes wrapper, #493

  - borg serve's special support for forced/original ssh commands, #544
  - misc. updates and fixes

Version 0.30.0
--------------

Compatibility notes:

- you may need to use -v (or --info) more often to actually see output emitted
  at INFO log level (because it is suppressed at the default WARNING log level).
  See the "general" section in the usage docs.
- for borg create, you need --list (additionally to -v) to see the long file
  list (was needed so you can have e.g. --stats alone without the long list)
- see below about BORG_DELETE_I_KNOW_WHAT_I_AM_DOING (was:
  BORG_CHECK_I_KNOW_WHAT_I_AM_DOING)

Bug fixes:

- fix crash when using borg create --dry-run --keep-tag-files, #570
- make sure teardown with cleanup happens for Cache and RepositoryCache,
  avoiding leftover locks and TEMP dir contents, #285 (partially), #548
- fix locking KeyError, partial fix for #502
- log stats consistently, #526
- add abbreviated weekday to timestamp format, fixes #496
- strip whitespace when loading exclusions from file
- unset LD_LIBRARY_PATH before invoking ssh, fixes strange OpenSSL library
  version warning when using the borg binary, #514
- add some error handling/fallback for C library loading, #494
- added BORG_DELETE_I_KNOW_WHAT_I_AM_DOING for check in "borg delete", #503
- remove unused "repair" rpc method name

New features:

- borg create: implement exclusions using regular expression patterns.
- borg create: implement inclusions using patterns.
- borg extract: support patterns, #361
- support different styles for patterns:

  - fnmatch (`fm:` prefix, default when omitted), like borg <= 0.29.
  - shell (`sh:` prefix) with `*` not matching directory separators and
    `**/` matching 0..n directories
  - path prefix (`pp:` prefix, for unifying borg create pp1 pp2 into the
    patterns system), semantics like in borg <= 0.29
  - regular expression (`re:`), new!
- --progress option for borg upgrade (#291) and borg delete <archive>
- update progress indication more often (e.g. for borg create within big
  files or for borg check repo), #500
- finer chunker granularity for items metadata stream, #547, #487
- borg create --list now used (additionally to -v) to enable the verbose
  file list output
- display borg version below tracebacks, #532

Other changes:

- hashtable size (and thus: RAM and disk consumption) follows a growth policy:
  grows fast while small, grows slower when getting bigger, #527
- Vagrantfile: use pyinstaller 3.1 to build binaries, freebsd sqlite3 fix,
  fixes #569
- no separate binaries for centos6 any more because the generic linux binaries
  also work on centos6 (or in general: on systems with a slightly older glibc
  than debian7
- dev environment: require virtualenv<14.0 so we get a py32 compatible pip
- docs:

  - add space-saving chunks.archive.d trick to FAQ
  - important: clarify -v and log levels in usage -> general, please read!
  - sphinx configuration: create a simple man page from usage docs
  - add a repo server setup example
  - disable unneeded SSH features in authorized_keys examples for security.
  - borg prune only knows "--keep-within" and not "--within"
  - add gource video to resources docs, #507
  - add netbsd install instructions
  - authors: make it more clear what refers to borg and what to attic
  - document standalone binary requirements, #499
  - rephrase the mailing list section
  - development docs: run build_api and build_usage before tagging release
  - internals docs: hash table max. load factor is 0.75 now
  - markup, typo, grammar, phrasing, clarifications and other fixes.
  - add gcc gcc-c++ to redhat/fedora/corora install docs, fixes #583

Re-Import sysutils/py-borg as sysutils/py-borgbackup.

Ok MAINTAINER bsiegert.

While doing that, update to current release, 0.29.0.
Changes since 0.24.0:

Version 0.29.0
--------------

Compatibility notes:

- when upgrading to 0.29.0 you need to upgrade client as well as server
  installations due to the locking and commandline interface changes otherwise
  you'll get an error msg about a RPC protocol mismatch or a wrong commandline
  option.
  if you run a server that needs to support both old and new clients, it is
  suggested that you have a "borg-0.28.2" and a \ 
"borg-0.29.0" command.
  clients then can choose via e.g. "borg --remote-path=borg-0.29.0 ...".
- the default waiting time for a lock changed from infinity to 1 second for a
  better interactive user experience. if the repo you want to access is
  currently locked, borg will now terminate after 1s with an error message.
  if you have scripts that shall wait for the lock for a longer time, use
  --lock-wait N (with N being the maximum wait time in seconds).

Bug fixes:

- hash table tuning (better chosen hashtable load factor 0.75 and prime initial
  size of 1031 gave ~1000x speedup in some scenarios)
- avoid creation of an orphan lock for one case, #285
- --keep-tag-files: fix file mode and multiple tag files in one directory, #432
- fixes for "borg upgrade" (attic repo converter), #466
- remove --progress isatty magic (and also --no-progress option) again, #476
- borg init: display proper repo URL
- fix format of umask in help pages, #463

New features:

- implement --lock-wait, support timeout for UpgradableLock, #210
- implement borg break-lock command, #157
- include system info below traceback, #324
- sane remote logging, remote stderr, #461:

  - remote log output: intercept it and log it via local logging system,
    with "Remote: " prefixed to message. log remote tracebacks.
  - remote stderr: output it to local stderr with "Remote: " prefixed.
- add --debug and --info (same as --verbose) to set the log level of the
  builtin logging configuration (which otherwise defaults to warning), #426
  note: there are few messages emitted at DEBUG level currently.
- optionally configure logging via env var BORG_LOGGING_CONF
- add --filter option for status characters: e.g. to show only the added
  or modified files (and also errors), use "borg create -v --filter=AME \ 
...".
- more progress indicators, #394
- use ISO-8601 date and time format, #375
- "borg check --prefix" to restrict archive checking to that name \ 
prefix, #206

Other changes:

- hashindex_add C implementation (speed up cache re-sync for new archives)
- increase FUSE read_size to 1024 (speed up metadata operations)
- check/delete/prune --save-space: free unused segments quickly, #239
- increase rpc protocol version to 2 (see also Compatibility notes), #458
- silence borg by default (via default log level WARNING)
- get rid of C compiler warnings, #391

  - Borg moved to Arch Linux [community]
  - fix wrong installation instructions for archlinux

Version 0.28.2
--------------

New features:

- borg create --exclude-if-present TAGFILE - exclude directories that have the
  given file from the backup. You can additionally give --keep-tag-files to
  preserve just the directory roots and the tag-files (but not backup other
  directory contents), #395, attic #128, attic #142

Other changes:

- chunker: use off_t to get 64bit on 32bit platform, #178
- initialize chunker fd to -1, so it's not equal to STDIN_FILENO (0)
- fix reaction to "no" answer at delete repo prompt, #182
- setup.py: detect lz4.h header file location
- to support python < 3.2.4, add less buggy argparse lib from 3.2.6 (#194)
- fix for obtaining ``char *`` from temporary Python value (old code causes
  a compile error on Mint 17.2)
- llfuse 0.41 install troubles on some platforms, require < 0.41
  (UnicodeDecodeError exception due to non-ascii llfuse setup.py)
- cython code: add some int types to get rid of unspecific python add /
  subtract operations (avoid ``undefined symbol FPE_``... error on some platforms)
- fix verbose mode display of stdin backup
- extract: warn if a include pattern never matched, fixes #209,
  implement counters for Include/ExcludePatterns
- archive names with slashes are invalid, attic issue #180
- chunker: add a check whether the POSIX_FADV_DONTNEED constant is defined -
  fixes building on OpenBSD.

Other changes:

- detect inconsistency / corruption / hash collision, #170
- replace versioneer with setuptools_scm, #106
- docs:

  - pkg-config is needed for llfuse installation
  - be more clear about pruning, attic issue #132
- unit tests:

  - xattr: ignore security.selinux attribute showing up
  - ext3 seems to need a bit more space for a sparse file
  - do not test lzma level 9 compression (avoid MemoryError)
  - work around strange mtime granularity issue on netbsd, fixes #204
  - ignore st_rdev if file is not a block/char device, fixes #203
  - stay away from the setgid and sticky mode bits
- use Vagrant to do easy cross-platform testing (#196), currently:

  - Debian 7 "wheezy" 32bit, Debian 8 "jessie" 64bit
  - Ubuntu 12.04 32bit, Ubuntu 14.04 64bit
  - Centos 7 64bit
  - FreeBSD 10.2 64bit
  - OpenBSD 5.7 64bit
  - NetBSD 6.1.5 64bit
  - Darwin (OS X Yosemite)

Version 0.25.0
--------------

Compatibility notes:

- lz4 compression library (liblz4) is a new requirement (#156)
- the new compression code is very compatible: as long as you stay with zlib
  compression, older borg releases will still be able to read data from a
  repo/archive made with the new code (note: this is not the case for the
  default "none" compression, use "zlib,0" if you want a \ 
"no compression" mode
  that can be read by older borg). Also the new code is able to read repos and
  archives made with older borg versions (for all zlib levels  0..9).

Deprecations:

- --compression N (with N being a number, as in 0.24) is deprecated.
  We keep the --compression 0..9 for now to not break scripts, but it is
  deprecated and will be removed later, so better fix your scripts now:
  --compression 0 (as in 0.24) is the same as --compression zlib,0 (now).
  BUT: if you do not want compression, you rather want --compression none
  (which is the default).
  --compression 1 (in 0.24) is the same as --compression zlib,1 (now)
  --compression 9 (in 0.24) is the same as --compression zlib,9 (now)

New features:

- create --compression none (default, means: do not compress, just pass through
  data "as is". this is more efficient than zlib level 0 as used in \ 
borg 0.24)
- create --compression lz4 (super-fast, but not very high compression)
- create --compression zlib,N (slower, higher compression, default for N is 6)
- create --compression lzma,N (slowest, highest compression, default N is 6)
- honor the nodump flag (UF_NODUMP) and do not backup such items
- list --short just outputs a simple list of the files/directories in an archive

Bug fixes:

- fixed --chunker-params parameter order confusion / malfunction, fixes #154
- close fds of segments we delete (during compaction)
- close files which fell out the lrucache
- fadvise DONTNEED now is only called for the byte range actually read, not for
  the whole file, fixes #158.
- fix issue with negative "all archives" size, fixes #165
- restore_xattrs: ignore if setxattr fails with EACCES, fixes #162

Other changes:

- remove fakeroot requirement for tests, tests run faster without fakeroot
  (test setup does not fail any more without fakeroot, so you can run with or
  without fakeroot), fixes #151 and #91.
- more tests for archiver
- recover_segment(): don't assume we have an fd for segment
- lrucache refactoring / cleanup, add dispose function, py.test tests
- generalize hashindex code for any key length (less hardcoding)
- lock roster: catch file not found in remove() method and ignore it
- travis CI: use requirements file
- improved docs:

  - replace hack for llfuse with proper solution (install libfuse-dev)
  - update docs about compression
  - update development docs about fakeroot
  - internals: add some words about lock files / locking system
  - support: mention BountySource and for what it can be used
  - theme: use a lighter green
  - add pypi, wheel, dist package based install docs
  - split install docs into system-specific preparations and generic instructions
