I retired from this project in 2016, yet I still regularly get support requests by email. I rarely have time to answer those requests, which are better served by community infrastructure anyways.
I suspect other members of the borg "collective" are retired as well, but I do not want to make any claims in that regard.
- add archiver.main_mount()
- provide borgfs behaviour when the monolithic binary is called via a
symlink called borgfs
- docs: update usage of mount subcommand, provide examples for borgfs and
add symlink creation to standalone binary installation
- run build_usage
- add entry point in setup.py
- patch helpers.py:get_keys_dir() to allow mounting fstab entries with
"user" option set
Without this, setuid() called at some point by mount changes the HOME
environment variable to '/root' and os.expanduser('~') would return
'/root' as well, thus the mount would fail with
PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/root/.config'
After setuid(), the HOME variable stays intact, so we still can
explicitly query USER's home.
Also, os.path.expanduser() behaves differently for '~' and '~someuser'
as parameters: when called with an explicit username, the possibly set
environment variable HOME is no longer respected. So we have to check if
it is set and only expand the user's home directory if HOME is unset.
- add myself to AUTHORS
I merged some pull requests of other developers into borg and now added
them to the developers / contributors list, with permission.
In general, feel free to add yourself to the list if you contributed something
to borg - just make a pull request including your addition to AUTHORS.
That's way easier for me than having to ask whether you want to be in there
and how precisely... - just write your entry yourself!
use borg instead attic except at the places where it was used:
- as toplevel package name, directory name, file name
- to refer to original attic
remove sphinx upload make command, will be replaced by github.io site later
remove references to binary downloads and linux packages for now
remove some software name references, fix grammar
use borgbackup rather than borg-backup (or borg) in URLs,
less name collision issues, better search results, no validity issues with "-"
move the modulo out of the barrel shift and use 32bits variables so
that the compiler recognizes it and uses the "rol*" asm instructions.
