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.

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.

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
