I usually just uploaded that into the GH release assets, but let's also have it in git.

Binary BorgBackup builds
|
||||
========================
|
||||
|
||||
The binaries are supposed to work on the specified platform without installing
|
||||
any dependencies.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Download the correct files
|
||||
--------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
amd64 / x86_64 architecture
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
borg-linux-glibc236 Linux (built on Debian 12 "Bookworm" with glibc 2.36)
|
||||
borg-linux-glibc231 Linux (built on Debian 11 "Bullseye" with glibc 2.31)
|
||||
Note: you can also try them on other Linuxes with other glibc
|
||||
versions - as long as the glibc is compatible, they will work.
|
||||
If it doesn't work, try a borg 1.4.x or 1.2.x binary.
|
||||
|
||||
borg-macos1012 macOS (built on macOS Sierra 10.12 with latest macFUSE from brew)
|
||||
To avoid signing issues download the file via command line OR
|
||||
remove the "quarantine" attribute after downloading:
|
||||
$ xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine borg-macos.tgz
|
||||
|
||||
borg-freebsd14 FreeBSD (built on FreeBSD 14)
|
||||
|
||||
*.tgz similar to above, but built as a directory with files,
|
||||
not as a single self-extracting binary.
|
||||
*.asc GnuPG signatures for *
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Verifying your download
|
||||
-----------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Please check the GPG signature to make sure you received the binary as I have
|
||||
built it.
|
||||
|
||||
To check the GPG signature, download both the binary and the corresponding
|
||||
*.asc file and then (on the shell) type, e.g.:
|
||||
|
||||
gpg --recv-keys 9F88FB52FAF7B393
|
||||
gpg --verify borg-freebsd14.asc borg-freebsd14
|
||||
|
||||
The files are signed by:
|
||||
|
||||
Thomas Waldmann <tw@waldmann-edv.de>
|
||||
GPG key fingerprint: 6D5B EF9A DD20 7580 5747 B70F 9F88 FB52 FAF7 B393
|
||||
|
||||
My fingerprint is also in the footer of all my borgbackup mailing list posts.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Installing
|
||||
----------
|
||||
|
||||
It is suggested that you rename or symlink the binary to just "borg".
|
||||
|
||||
On UNIX-like platforms, /usr/local/bin/ or ~/bin/ is a nice place for it,
|
||||
but you can invoke it from every place by giving a full path to it.
|
||||
|
||||
Make sure the file is readable and executable (chmod +rx borg on UNIX-like
|
||||
platforms).
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Reporting issues
|
||||
----------------
|
||||
If you find issues, please open a ticket on our issue tracker:
|
||||
|
||||
https://github.com/borgbackup/borg/issues/
|
||||
|
||||
There, please give:
|
||||
- the version number (it is displayed if you invoke borg -V)
|
||||
- the sha256sum of the binary
|
||||
- a good description of what the issue is
|
||||
- a good description of how to reproduce your issue
|
||||
- a traceback with system info (if you have one)
|
||||
- your precise platform (CPU, 32/64bit?), OS, distribution, release
|
||||
- your python and (g)libc version
