Enhancement: Sort snapshots by timestamp in `restic find`

The `find` command used to print snapshots in an arbitrary order. Restic now

Enhancement: Add `repair index` and `repair snapshots` commands
|
||||
|
||||
The `rebuild-index` command has been renamed to `repair index`. The old name
|
||||
will still work, but is deprecated.
|
||||
|
||||
When a snapshot was damaged, the only option up to now was to completely forget
|
||||
the snapshot, even if only some unimportant files in it were damaged and other
|
||||
files were still fine.
|
||||
|
||||
Restic now has a `repair snapshots` command, which can salvage any non-damaged
|
||||
files and parts of files in the snapshots by removing damaged directories and
|
||||
missing file contents. Please note that the damaged data may still be lost
|
||||
and see the "Troubleshooting" section in the documentation for more details.

Enhancement: Add support for non-global Azure clouds
|
||||
|
||||
The `azure` backend previously only supported storages using the global domain
|
||||
`core.windows.net`. This meant that backups to other domains such as Azure
|
||||
China (`core.chinacloudapi.cn`) or Azure Germany (`core.cloudapi.de`) were
|

not supported. Restic now allows overriding the global domain using the

environment variable `AZURE_ENDPOINT_SUFFIX`.

Restic would previously forget snapshots that should have been kept when a

Bugfix: Support non-UTF8 paths as symlink target
|
||||
|
||||
Earlier restic versions did not correctly `backup` and `restore` symlinks that

contain a non-UTF8 target. Note that this only affected systems that still use
|
||||
a non-Unicode encoding for filesystem paths.
|

The repository format is now extended to add support for such symlinks. Please
|

note that snapshots must have been created with at least restic version 0.16.0

for `restore` to correctly handle non-UTF8 symlink targets when restoring them.

Enhancement: Improve accuracy of ETA displayed during backup
|
||||
|

Restic's `backup` command displayed an ETA that did not adapt when the rate of
|

progress made during the backup changed during the course of the backup.
|
||||
|
||||
Restic now uses recent progress when computing the ETA. It is important to

realize that the estimate may still be wrong, because restic cannot predict

the future, but the hope is that the ETA will be more accurate in most cases.

Enhancement: Support `<snapshot>:<subfolder>` syntax to select subfolders
|
||||
|
||||
Commands like `diff` or `restore` always worked with the full snapshot. This
|
||||
did not allow comparing only a specific subfolder or only restoring that folder
|
||||
(`restore --include subfolder` filters the restored files, but still creates the
|
||||
directories included in `subfolder`).
|
||||
|
||||
The commands `diff`, `dump`, `ls` and `restore` now support the
|
||||
`<snapshot>:<subfolder>` syntax, where `snapshot` is the ID of a snapshot (or
|
||||
the string `latest`) and `subfolder` is a path within the snapshot. The
|
||||
commands will then only work with the specified path of the snapshot. The
|
||||
`subfolder` must be a path to a folder as returned by `ls`. Two examples:
|
||||
|
||||
`restic restore -t target latest:/some/path`
|
||||
`restic diff 12345678:/some/path 90abcef:/some/path`

Enhancement: Support `--group-by` for backup parent selection
|
||||
|
||||
Previously, the `backup` command by default selected the parent snapshot based
|
||||
on the hostname and the backup targets. When the backup path list changed, the
|
||||
`backup` command was unable to determine a suitable parent snapshot and had to
|
||||
read all files again.
|
||||
|
||||
The new `--group-by` option for the `backup` command allows filtering snapshots
|
||||
for the parent selection by `host`, `paths` and `tags`. It defaults to
|
||||
`host,paths` which selects the latest snapshot with hostname and paths matching
|
||||
those of the backup run. This matches the behavior of prior restic versions.
|
||||
|
||||
The new `--group-by` option should be set to the same value as passed to
|
||||
`forget --group-by`.
