E.g. doing a chown or chmod to a file will change its ctime.

can be arbitrarily set from userspace, e.g. to set mtime back to the same value

and not include any other contents of the containing folder, this can be enabled
through using the ``--keep-exclude-tags`` option.
The ``-x`` or ``--one-file-system`` option excludes directories, that are mountpoints (and everything in them).
It detects mountpoints by comparing the device number from the output of ``stat()`` of the directory and its
parent directory. Specifically, it excludes directories for which ``stat()`` reports a device number different
from the device number of their parent. Be aware that in Linux (and possibly elsewhere) there are directories
with device number different from their parent, which the kernel does not consider a mountpoint and also the
other way around. Examples are bind mounts (possibly same device number, but always a mountpoint) and ALL
subvolumes of a btrfs (different device number from parent but not necessarily a mountpoint). Therefore when
using ``--one-file-system``, one should make doubly sure that the backup works as intended especially when using
btrfs. This is even more important, if the btrfs layout was created by someone else, e.g. a distribution
installer.

Use compressed-size obfuscation to make fingerprinting attacks based on
the observable stored chunk size more difficult.
Note:
- you must combine this with encryption or it won't make any sense.
- your repo size will be bigger, of course.
The SPEC value will determine how the size obfuscation will work:
Relative random reciprocal size variation:
Size will increase by a factor, relative to the compressed data size.
Smaller factors are often used, larger factors rarely.
