18 months agoPut backups back into their proper order
Richard Kettlewell [Sun, 18 Mar 2012 14:03:45 +0000]
Put backups back into their proper order

18 months agoLog details of why a backup is pruned.
Richard Kettlewell [Sun, 18 Mar 2012 13:43:05 +0000]
Log details of why a backup is pruned.

22 months agoMove store permissions check after the 'device-id' check.
Richard Kettlewell [Tue, 22 Nov 2011 19:08:06 +0000]
Move store permissions check after the 'device-id' check.

This is a better way of testing whether what we find is supposed to be
a backup medium or is an empty mount point.

22 months agoDocument current store validity logic
Richard Kettlewell [Thu, 17 Nov 2011 19:43:28 +0000]
Document current store validity logic

22 months agoUnmounted stores are unavailable, not bad.
Richard Kettlewell [Thu, 17 Nov 2011 19:33:39 +0000]
Unmounted stores are unavailable, not bad.

22 months agoSort results of directory listings.
Richard Kettlewell [Sat, 5 Nov 2011 18:05:48 +0000]
Sort results of directory listings.

This ensures that warnings are sensibly ordered.

22 months agoMark backups when prune starts.
Richard Kettlewell [Sat, 5 Nov 2011 18:02:39 +0000]
Mark backups when prune starts.

This allows us to avoid reporting partly pruned backups as viable in
the report, and to ensure that pruning of partly pruned backups
continues on a subsequent prune even if the pruning parameters have
changed.

22 months agoCreate .incomplete files while pruning.
Richard Kettlewell [Sat, 5 Nov 2011 17:29:09 +0000]
Create .incomplete files while pruning.

This means there is at least some indication that the backup is now
dead.  However the logs will show it as alive until the pruning is
complete, so more work is required here.

23 months agoImprove handling of missing and misconfigured stores.
Richard Kettlewell [Sun, 16 Oct 2011 09:37:45 +0000]
Improve handling of missing and misconfigured stores.

If it looks like a store is present but misconfigured (for instance,
wrong permissions) is always reported as an error.  If it looks like
the store is absent then this is only reported if --warn-store is
given, but if no configured store is present then the problems found
with all configured stores are listed.

The documentation on how to set up stores has also been clarified.

23 months agoCHANGES: ispell-buffer.

README: typo fix.

23 months agoEnable partial transfer warnings by default.
Richard Kettlewell [Sat, 15 Oct 2011 09:00:04 +0000]
Enable partial transfer warnings by default.

These errors are still not considered to make the backup fail - at
this point the question is merely how conservative rsbackup is at
reporting them to the operator.

23 months agoDisplay rsync errors on stderr.
Richard Kettlewell [Sat, 15 Oct 2011 08:56:37 +0000]
Display rsync errors on stderr.

The old behavior can be restored with --no-errors.

23 months agoAdd --warn-partial option.
Richard Kettlewell [Sat, 15 Oct 2011 08:42:59 +0000]
Add --warn-partial option.

23 months agoRestore creation of .incomplete files.
Richard Kettlewell [Sat, 8 Oct 2011 10:14:16 +0000]
Restore creation of .incomplete files.

The C++ version does not rely on them itself but they are a useful
hint to the operator when trying to identify which backup to restore
from.

Also minor documentation improvements.
