|
|
|
Pre-1.1.11 potential index corruption / data loss issue
|
|
-------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
A bug was discovered in our hashtable code, see issue #4829.
|
|
The code is used for the client-side chunks cache and the server-side repo index.
|
|
|
|
Although borg uses the hashtables very heavily, the index corruption did not
|
|
happen too frequently, because it needed specific conditions to happen.
|
|
|
|
Data loss required even more specific conditions, so it should be rare (and
|
|
also detectable via borg check).
|
|
|
|
You might be affected if borg crashed with / complained about:
|
|
|
|
- AssertionError: Corrupted segment reference count - corrupted index or hints
|
|
- ObjectNotFound: Object with key ... not found in repository ...
|
|
- Index mismatch for key b'...'. (..., ...) != (-1, -1)
|
|
- ValueError: stats_against: key contained in self but not in master_index.
|
|
|
|
Advised procedure to fix any related issue in your indexes/caches:
|
|
|
|
- install fixed borg code (on client AND server)
|
|
- for all of your clients and repos remove the cache by:
|
|
|
|
borg delete --cache-only YOURREPO
|
|
|
|
(later, the cache will be re-built automatically)
|
|
- for all your repos, rebuild the repo index by:
|
|
|
|
borg check --repair YOURREPO
|
|
|
|
This will also check all archives and detect if there is any data-loss issue.
|
|
|
|
Affected branches / releases:
|
|
|
|
- fd06497 introduced the bug into 1.1-maint branch - it affects all borg 1.1.x since 1.1.0b4.
|
|
- fd06497 introduced the bug into master branch - it affects all borg 1.2.0 alpha releases.
|
|
- c5cd882 introduced the bug into 1.0-maint branch - it affects all borg 1.0.x since 1.0.11rc1.
|
|
|
|
The bug was fixed by:
|
|
|
|
- 701159a fixes the bug in 1.1-maint branch - will be released with borg 1.1.11.
|
|
- fa63150 fixes the bug in master branch - will be released with borg 1.2.0a8.
|
|
- 7bb90b6 fixes the bug in 1.0-maint branch. Branch is EOL, no new release is planned as of now.

.. _broken_validator:
|
|
|
|
Pre-1.1.4 potential data corruption issue
|
|
-----------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
A data corruption bug was discovered in borg check --repair, see issue #3444.
|
|
|
|
This is a 1.1.x regression, releases < 1.1 (e.g. 1.0.x) are not affected.
|
|
|
|
To avoid data loss, you must not run borg check --repair using an unfixed version
|
|
of borg 1.1.x. The first official release that has the fix is 1.1.4.
|
|
|
|
Package maintainers may have applied the fix to updated packages of 1.1.x (x<4)
|
|
though, see the package maintainer's package changelog to make sure.
|
|
|
|
If you never had missing item metadata chunks, the bug has not affected you
|
|
even if you did run borg check --repair with an unfixed version.
|
|
|
|
When borg check --repair tried to repair corrupt archives that miss item metadata
|
|
chunks, the resync to valid metadata in still present item metadata chunks
|
|
malfunctioned. This was due to a broken validator that considered all (even valid)
|
|
item metadata as invalid. As they were considered invalid, borg discarded them.
|
|
Practically, that means the affected files, directories or other fs objects were
|
|
discarded from the archive.
|
|
|
|
Due to the malfunction, the process was extremely slow, but if you let it
|
|
complete, borg would have created a "repaired" archive that has lost a lot of items.
|
|
If you interrupted borg check --repair because it was so strangely slow (killing
|
|
borg somehow, e.g. Ctrl-C) the transaction was rolled back and no corruption occurred.
|
|
|
|
The log message indicating the precondition for the bug triggering looks like:
|
|
|
|
item metadata chunk missing [chunk: 001056_bdee87d...a3e50d]
|
|
|
|
If you never had that in your borg check --repair runs, you're not affected.
|
|
|
|
But if you're unsure or you actually have seen that, better check your archives.
|
|
By just using "borg list repo::archive" you can see if all expected filesystem
|
|
items are listed.
|
|
|
|
.. _tam_vuln:
|
|
|
|
Pre-1.0.9 manifest spoofing vulnerability (CVE-2016-10099)
|
|
----------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
A flaw in the cryptographic authentication scheme in Borg allowed an attacker
|
|
to spoof the manifest. The attack requires an attacker to be able to
|
|
|
|
1. insert files (with no additional headers) into backups
|
|
2. gain write access to the repository
|
|
|
|
This vulnerability does not disclose plaintext to the attacker, nor does it
|
|
affect the authenticity of existing archives.
|
|
|
|
The vulnerability allows an attacker to create a spoofed manifest (the list of archives).
|
|
Creating plausible fake archives may be feasible for small archives, but is unlikely
|
|
for large archives.
|
|
|
|
The fix adds a separate authentication tag to the manifest. For compatibility
|
|
with prior versions this authentication tag is *not* required by default
|
|
for existing repositories. Repositories created with 1.0.9 and later require it.
|
|
|
|
Steps you should take:
|
|
|
|
1. Upgrade all clients to 1.0.9 or later.
|
|
2. Run ``borg upgrade --tam <repository>`` *on every client* for *each* repository.
|
|
3. This will list all archives, including archive IDs, for easy comparison with your logs.
|
|
4. Done.
|
|
|
|
Prior versions can access and modify repositories with this measure enabled, however,
|
|
to 1.0.9 or later their modifications are indiscernible from an attack and will
|
|
raise an error until the below procedure is followed. We are aware that this can
|
|
be annoying in some circumstances, but don't see a way to fix the vulnerability
|
|
otherwise.
|
|
|
|
In case a version prior to 1.0.9 is used to modify a repository where above procedure
|
|
was completed, and now you get an error message from other clients:
|
|
|
|
1. ``borg upgrade --tam --force <repository>`` once with *any* client suffices.
|
|
|
|
This attack is mitigated by:
|
|
|
|
- Noting/logging ``borg list``, ``borg info``, or ``borg create --stats``, which
|
|
contain the archive IDs.
|
|
|
|
We are not aware of others having discovered, disclosed or exploited this vulnerability.

.. _attic013_check_corruption:
|
|
|
|
Pre-1.0.9 potential data loss
|
|
-----------------------------
|
|
|
|
If you have archives in your repository that were made with attic <= 0.13
|
|
(and later migrated to borg), running borg check would report errors in these
|
|
archives. See issue #1837.
|
|
|
|
The reason for this is a invalid (and useless) metadata key that was
|
|
always added due to a bug in these old attic versions.
|
|
|
|
If you run borg check --repair, things escalate quickly: all archive items
|
|
with invalid metadata will be killed. Due to that attic bug, that means all
|
|
items in all archives made with these old attic versions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Pre-1.0.4 potential repo corruption
|
|
-----------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Some external errors (like network or disk I/O errors) could lead to
|
|
corruption of the backup repository due to issue #1138.
|
|
|
|
A sign that this happened is if "E" status was reported for a file that can
|
|
not be explained by problems with the source file. If you still have logs from
|
|
"borg create -v --list", you can check for "E" status.
|
|
|
|
Here is what could cause corruption and what you can do now:
|
|
|
|
1) I/O errors (e.g. repo disk errors) while writing data to repo.
|
|
|
|
This could lead to corrupted segment files.
|
|
|
|
Fix::
|
|
|
|
# check for corrupt chunks / segments:
|
|
borg check -v --repository-only REPO
|
|
|
|
# repair the repo:
|
|
borg check -v --repository-only --repair REPO
|
|
|
|
# make sure everything is fixed:
|
|
borg check -v --repository-only REPO
|
|
|
|
2) Unreliable network / unreliable connection to the repo.
|
|
|
|
This could lead to archive metadata corruption.
|
|
|
|
Fix::
|
|
|
|
# check for corrupt archives:
|
|
borg check -v --archives-only REPO
|
|
|
|
# delete the corrupt archives:
|
|
borg delete --force REPO::CORRUPT_ARCHIVE
|
|
|
|
# make sure everything is fixed:
|
|
borg check -v --archives-only REPO
|
|
|
|
3) In case you want to do more intensive checking.
|
|
|
|
The best check that everything is ok is to run a dry-run extraction::
|
|
|
|
borg extract -v --dry-run REPO::ARCHIVE

Change Log
|
|
==========
|
|
|
|
Version 1.2.0b3 (2021-05-12)
|
|
----------------------------
|
|
|
|
Please note:
|
|
|
|
This is code released for testing (== helping us find bugs).
|
|
|
|
It is not suitable to run against your production backup repositories!
|
|
|
|
So, if you want to help testing, please run this code additionally to your
|
|
normal backup and use a separate, fresh repository for it.
|
|
|
|
See there for feedback: https://github.com/borgbackup/borg/issues/4360
|
|
|
|
Compatibility notes:
|
|
|
|
- dropped support / testing for Python 3.4 and 3.5, minimum requirement is 3.6.
|
|
In case your OS does not provide Python >= 3.6, consider using our binary,
|
|
which does not need an external Python interpreter.
|
|
- freeing repository space only happens when "borg compact" is invoked.
|
|
- mount: the default for --numeric-ids is False now (same as borg extract)
|
|
- borg create --noatime is deprecated. Not storing atime is the default behaviour
|
|
now (use --atime if you want to store the atime).
|
|
- list: corrected mix-up of "isomtime" and "mtime" formats.
|
|
Previously, "isomtime" was the default but produced a verbose human format,
|
|
while "mtime" produced a ISO-8601-like format.
|
|
The behaviours have been swapped (so "mtime" is human, "isomtime" is ISO-like),
|
|
and the default is now "mtime".
|
|
"isomtime" is now a real ISO-8601 format ("T" between date and time, not a space).
|
|
- create/recreate --list: file status for all files used to get announced *AFTER*
|
|
the file (with borg < 1.2). Now, file status is announced *BEFORE* the file
|
|
contents are processed. If the file status changes later (e.g. due to an error
|
|
or a content change), the updated/final file status will be printed again.
|
|
- removed deprecated-since-long stuff (deprecated since):
|
|
|
|
- command "borg change-passphrase" (2017-02), use "borg key ..."
|
|
- option "--keep-tag-files" (2017-01), use "--keep-exclude-tags"
|
|
- option "--list-format" (2017-10), use "--format"
|
|
- option "--ignore-inode" (2017-09), use "--files-cache" w/o "inode"
|
|
- option "--no-files-cache" (2017-09), use "--files-cache=disabled"
|
|
- removed BORG_HOSTNAME_IS_UNIQUE env var.
|
|
to use borg you must implement one of these 2 scenarios:
|
|
|
|
- 1) the combination of FQDN and result of uuid.getnode() must be unique
|
|
and stable (this should be the case for almost everybody, except when
|
|
having duplicate FQDN *and* MAC address or all-zero MAC address)
|
|
- 2) if you are aware that 1) is not the case for you, you must set
|
|
BORG_HOST_ID env var to something unique.
|
|
- exit with 128 + signal number, #5161.
|
|
if you have scripts expecting rc == 2 for a signal exit, you need to update
|
|
them to check for >= 128.
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
- create: fix --progress --log-json, #4360#issuecomment-774580052

|
|

|
|

|
|
- SecurityManager.known(): check all files, #4614
|
|
- after double-force delete, warn about necessary repair, #4704
|
|
- cope with ANY error when importing pytest into borg.testsuite, #4652
|
|
- fix invalid archive error message
|
|

|
|

|
|

|
|
- new BORG_WORKAROUNDS mechanism, basesyncfile, #4710

|
|
set BORG_WORKAROUNDS=basesyncfile in the borg process environment to

|
|
- create:
|
|
|
|
- changed the default behaviour to not store the atime of fs items. atime is
|
|
often rather not interesting and fragile - it easily changes even if nothing
|
|
else has changed and, if stored into the archive, spoils deduplication of
|
|
the archive metadata stream.
|
|
- if you give the --noatime option, borg will output a deprecation warning
|
|
because it is currently ignored / does nothing.
|
|
Please remove the --noatime option when using borg 1.2.
|
|
- added a --atime option for storing files' atime into an archive

|
|
|
|
Other changes:
|
|
|
|
- major setup code refactoring (especially how libraries like openssl, liblz4,
|
|
libzstd, libb2 are discovered and how it falls back to code bundled with
|
|

|
Version 1.2.0a2 and earlier (2019-02-24)
|
|
----------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
New features:
|
|
|
|
- compact: "borg compact" needs to be used to free repository space by
|
|
compacting the segments (reading sparse segments, rewriting still needed
|
|
data to new segments, deleting the sparse segments).
|
|
Borg < 1.2 invoked compaction automatically at the end of each repository
|
|
writing command.
|
|
Borg >= 1.2 does not do that any more to give better speed, more control,
|
|
more segment file stability (== less stuff moving to newer segments) and
|
|
more robustness.
|
|
See the docs about "borg compact" for more details.
|
|
- "borg compact --cleanup-commits" is to cleanup the tons of 17byte long
|
|
commit-only segment files caused by borg 1.1.x issue #2850.
|
|
Invoke this once after upgrading (the server side) borg to 1.2.
|
|
Compaction now automatically removes unneeded commit-only segment files.
|
|
- prune: Show which rule was applied to keep archive, #2886
|
|
- add fixed blocksize chunker (see --chunker-params docs), #1086
|
|
|
|
Fixes:
|
|
|
|
- avoid stale filehandle issues, #3265
|
|
- use more FDs, avoid race conditions on active fs, #906, #908, #1038
|
|
- add O_NOFOLLOW to base flags, #908
|
|
- compact:
|
|
|
|
- require >10% freeable space in a segment, #2985
|
|
- repository compaction now automatically removes unneeded 17byte
|
|
commit-only segments, #2850
|
|
- make swidth available on all posix platforms, #2667
|
|
|
|
Other changes:
|
|
|
|
- repository: better speed and less stuff moving around by using separate
|
|
segment files for manifest DELETEs and PUTs, #3947
|
|
- use pyinstaller v3.3.1 to build binaries
|
|
- update bundled zstd code to 1.3.8, #4210

|
|

|
|
- archive: create FilesystemObjectProcessors class

|
|

|
|

Version 1.1.13 (2020-06-06)
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
Compatibility notes:
|
|
|
|
- When upgrading from borg 1.0.x to 1.1.x, please note:
|
|
|
|
- read all the compatibility notes for 1.1.0*, starting from 1.1.0b1.
|
|
- borg upgrade: you do not need to and you also should not run it.
|
|
- borg might ask some security-related questions once after upgrading.
|
|
You can answer them either manually or via environment variable.
|
|
One known case is if you use unencrypted repositories, then it will ask
|
|
about a unknown unencrypted repository one time.
|
|
- your first backup with 1.1.x might be significantly slower (it might
|
|
completely read, chunk, hash a lot files) - this is due to the
|
|
--files-cache mode change (and happens every time you change mode).
|
|
You can avoid the one-time slowdown by using the pre-1.1.0rc4-compatible
|
|
mode (but that is less safe for detecting changed files than the default).
|
|
See the --files-cache docs for details.
|
|
- 1.1.11 removes WSL autodetection (Windows 10 Subsystem for Linux).
|
|
If WSL still has a problem with sync_file_range, you need to set
|
|
BORG_WORKAROUNDS=basesyncfile in the borg process environment to
|
|
work around the WSL issue.
|
|
|
|
Fixes:
|
|
|
|
- rebuilt using a current Cython version, compatible with python 3.8, #5214
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
- fix FUSE low linear read speed on large files, #5067

|
|

Version 1.1.11 (2020-03-08)
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
Compatibility notes:
|
|
|
|
- When upgrading from borg 1.0.x to 1.1.x, please note:
|
|
|
|
- read all the compatibility notes for 1.1.0*, starting from 1.1.0b1.
|
|
- borg upgrade: you do not need to and you also should not run it.
|
|
- borg might ask some security-related questions once after upgrading.
|
|
You can answer them either manually or via environment variable.
|
|
One known case is if you use unencrypted repositories, then it will ask
|
|
about a unknown unencrypted repository one time.
|
|
- your first backup with 1.1.x might be significantly slower (it might
|
|
completely read, chunk, hash a lot files) - this is due to the
|
|
--files-cache mode change (and happens every time you change mode).
|
|
You can avoid the one-time slowdown by using the pre-1.1.0rc4-compatible
|
|
mode (but that is less safe for detecting changed files than the default).
|
|
See the --files-cache docs for details.
|
|
- 1.1.11 removes WSL autodetection (Windows 10 Subsystem for Linux).
|
|
If WSL still has a problem with sync_file_range, you need to set
|
|
BORG_WORKAROUNDS=basesyncfile in the borg process environment to
|
|
work around the WSL issue.
|
|
|
|
Fixes:
|
|
|
|
- fixed potential index corruption / data loss issue due to bug in hashindex_set, #4829.
|
|
Please read and follow the more detailed notes close to the top of this document.
|
|
- upgrade bundled xxhash to 0.7.3, #4891.
|
|
0.7.2 is the minimum requirement for correct operations on ARMv6 in non-fixup
|
|
mode, where unaligned memory accesses cause bus errors.
|
|
0.7.3 adds some speedups and libxxhash 0.7.3 even has a pkg-config file now.
|
|
- upgrade bundled lz4 to 1.9.2
|
|
- upgrade bundled zstd to 1.4.4
|
|
- fix crash when upgrading erroneous hints file, #4922
|
|

|
|

|
|
- recreate: support --timestamp option, #4745

|
|
- travis / vagrant:

|
|
|
- misc python versions removed / changed (due to openssl 1.1 compatibility)
|
|
or added (3.7 and 3.8, for better borg compatibility testing)
|
|
- binary building is on python 3.5.9 now
|
|
- vagrant:
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
Version 1.1.10 (2019-05-16)
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
Fixes:
|
|
|
|
- extract: hang on partial extraction with ssh: repo, when hardlink master
|
|
is not matched/extracted and borg hangs on related slave hardlink, #4350
|
|

|
|
- avoid stale filehandle issues, #3265

|
|
- borg command shall terminate with rc 2 for ImportErrors, #4424
|
|
- create: only run stat_simple_attrs() once, this increases
|
|
backup with lots of unchanged files performance by ~ 5%.
|
|
- prune: fix incorrect borg prune --stats output with --dry-run, #4373
|
|
- key export: emit user-friendly error if repo key is exported to a directory,
|
|

|
|
|
New features:
|
|
|
|
- bundle latest supported msgpack-python release (0.5.6), remove msgpack-python
|
|
from setup.py install_requires - by default we use the bundled code now.
|
|
optionally, we still support using an external msgpack (see hints in
|
|
setup.py), but this requires solid requirements management within
|
|
distributions and is not recommended.
|
|
borgbackup will break if you upgrade msgpack to an unsupported version.
|
|
- display msgpack version as part of sysinfo (e.g. in tracebacks)
|
|
- timestamp for borg delete --info added, #4359
|

|
|
--------------------------
|
|
|
|
Compatibility notes:
|
|
|
|
- When upgrading from borg 1.0.x to 1.1.x, please note:
|
|
|
|
- read all the compatibility notes for 1.1.0*, starting from 1.1.0b1.
|
|
- borg upgrade: you do not need to and you also should not run it.

|
|
|
Fixes:
|
|

|
|
|
|
- require msgpack-python >= 0.4.6 and < 0.5.0.

|
|
Fixes:

Version 1.1.4 (2017-12-31)
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
|
|
Compatibility notes:
|
|
|
|
- When upgrading from borg 1.0.x to 1.1.x, please note:
|
|
|
|
- read all the compatibility notes for 1.1.0*, starting from 1.1.0b1.
|
|
- borg upgrade: you do not need to and you also should not run it.
|
|
- borg might ask some security-related questions once after upgrading.
|
|
You can answer them either manually or via environment variable.
|
|
One known case is if you use unencrypted repositories, then it will ask
|
|
about a unknown unencrypted repository one time.
|
|
- your first backup with 1.1.x might be significantly slower (it might
|
|
completely read, chunk, hash a lot files) - this is due to the
|
|
--files-cache mode change (and happens every time you change mode).
|
|
You can avoid the one-time slowdown by using the pre-1.1.0rc4-compatible
|
|
mode (but that is less safe for detecting changed files than the default).
|
|
See the --files-cache docs for details.
|
|
- borg 1.1.4 changes:
|
|
|
|
- zstd compression is new in borg 1.1.4, older borg can't handle it.
|
|
- new minimum requirements for the compression libraries - if the required
|
|
versions (header and lib) can't be found at build time, bundled code will
|
|
be used:
|
|
|
|
- added requirement: libzstd >= 1.3.0 (bundled: 1.3.2)
|
|
- updated requirement: liblz4 >= 1.7.0 / r129 (bundled: 1.8.0)
|
|
|
|
Fixes:
|
|
|
|
- check: data corruption fix: fix for borg check --repair malfunction, #3444.
|
|
See the more detailed notes close to the top of this document.
|
|
- delete: also delete security dir when deleting a repo, #3427
|
|
- prune: fix building the "borg prune" man page, #3398
|
|
- init: use given --storage-quota for local repo, #3470
|
|
- init: properly quote repo path in output
|
|
- fix startup delay with dns-only own fqdn resolving, #3471
|
|
|
|
New features:
|
|
|
|
- added zstd compression. try it!
|
|
- added placeholder {reverse-fqdn} for fqdn in reverse notation
|
|
- added BORG_BASE_DIR environment variable, #3338
|
|
|
|
Other changes:
|
|
|
|
- list help topics when invalid topic is requested
|
|
- fix lz4 deprecation warning, requires lz4 >= 1.7.0 (r129)
|
|
- add parens for C preprocessor macro argument usages (did not cause malfunction)
|
|
- exclude broken pytest 3.3.0 release
|
|
- updated fish/bash completions
|
|
- init: more clear exception messages for borg create, #3465
|
|
- docs:
|
|
|
|
- add auto-generated docs for borg config
|
|
- don't generate HTML docs page for borgfs, #3404
|
|
- docs update for lz4 b2 zstd changes
|
|
- add zstd to compression help, readme, docs
|
|
- update requirements and install docs about bundled lz4 and zstd
|
|
- refactored build of the compress and crypto.low_level extensions, #3415:
|
|
|
|
- move some lib/build related code to setup_{zstd,lz4,b2}.py
|
|
- bundle lz4 1.8.0 (requirement: >= 1.7.0 / r129)
|
|
- bundle zstd 1.3.2 (requirement: >= 1.3.0)
|
|
- blake2 was already bundled
|
|
- rename BORG_LZ4_PREFIX env var to BORG_LIBLZ4_PREFIX for better consistency:
|
|
we also have BORG_LIBB2_PREFIX and BORG_LIBZSTD_PREFIX now.
|
|
- add prefer_system_lib* = True settings to setup.py - by default the build
|
|
will prefer a shared library over the bundled code, if library and headers
|
|
can be found and meet the minimum requirements.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Version 1.1.3 (2017-11-27)
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
|
|
Fixes:
|
|
|
|
- Security Fix for CVE-2017-15914: Incorrect implementation of access controls
|
|
allows remote users to override repository restrictions in Borg servers.
|
|
A user able to access a remote Borg SSH server is able to circumvent access
|
|
controls post-authentication.
|
|
Affected releases: 1.1.0, 1.1.1, 1.1.2. Releases 1.0.x are NOT affected.
|
|
- crc32: deal with unaligned buffer, add tests - this broke borg on older ARM
|
|
CPUs that can not deal with unaligned 32bit memory accesses and raise a bus
|
|
error in such cases. the fix might also improve performance on some CPUs as
|
|
all 32bit memory accesses by the crc32 code are properly aligned now. #3317
|
|
- mount: fixed support of --consider-part-files and do not show .borg_part_N
|
|
files by default in the mounted FUSE filesystem. #3347
|
|
- fixed cache/repo timestamp inconsistency message, highlight that information
|
|
is obtained from security dir (deleting the cache will not bypass this error
|
|
in case the user knows this is a legitimate repo).
|
|
- borgfs: don't show sub-command in borgfs help, #3287
|
|
- create: show an error when --dry-run and --stats are used together, #3298
|
|
|
|
New features:
|
|
|
|
- mount: added exclusion group options and paths, #2138
|
|
|
|
Reused some code to support similar options/paths as borg extract offers -
|
|
making good use of these to only mount a smaller subset of dirs/files can
|
|
speed up mounting a lot and also will consume way less memory.
|
|
|
|
borg mount [options] repo_or_archive mountpoint path [paths...]
|
|
|
|
paths: you can just give some "root paths" (like for borg extract) to
|
|
only partially populate the FUSE filesystem.
|
|
|
|
new options: --exclude[-from], --pattern[s-from], --strip-components
|
|
- create/extract: support st_birthtime on platforms supporting it, #3272
|
|
- add "borg config" command for querying/setting/deleting config values, #3304
|
|
|
|
Other changes:
|
|
|
|
- clean up and simplify packaging (only package committed files, do not install
|
|
.c/.h/.pyx files)
|
|
- docs:
|
|
|
|
- point out tuning options for borg create, #3239
|
|
- add instructions for using ntfsclone, zerofree, #81
|
|
- move image backup-related FAQ entries to a new page

|
|

|
|

|
|
bsdflags, #3239
|
|
- move most of support section to www.borgbackup.org
|
|
|
|
|
|
Version 1.1.2 (2017-11-05)
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
|
|
Fixes:
|
|
|
|
- fix KeyError crash when talking to borg server < 1.0.7, #3244
|
|
- extract: set bsdflags last (include immutable flag), #3263
|
|
- create: don't do stat() call on excluded-norecurse directory, fix exception
|
|
handling for stat() call, #3209
|
|
- create --stats: do not count data volume twice when checkpointing, #3224
|
|
- recreate: move chunks_healthy when excluding hardlink master, #3228
|
|

|
|
- check: get rid of already existing not matching chunks_healthy metadata, #3218
|
|
- list: fix stdout broken pipe handling, #3245
|
|
- list/diff: remove tag-file options (not used), #3226
|
|
|
|
New features:
|
|
|
|
- bash, zsh and fish shell auto-completions, see scripts/shell_completions/
|
|
- added BORG_CONFIG_DIR env var, #3083
|
|
|
|
Other changes:
|
|
|
|
- docs:
|
|
|
|
- clarify using a blank passphrase in keyfile mode
|
|
- mention "!" (exclude-norecurse) type in "patterns" help
|
|
- document to first heal before running borg recreate to re-chunk stuff,
|
|
because that will have to get rid of chunks_healthy metadata.
|
|
- more than 23 is not supported for CHUNK_MAX_EXP, #3115
|
|
- borg does not respect nodump flag by default any more
|
|
- clarify same-filesystem requirement for borg upgrade, #2083
|
|
- update / rephrase cygwin / WSL status, #3174
|
|
- improve docs about --stats, #3260
|
|
- vagrant: openindiana new clang package
|
|
|
|
Already contained in 1.1.1 (last minute fix):
|
|
|
|
- arg parsing: fix fallback function, refactor, #3205. This is a fixup
|
|
for #3155, which was broken on at least python <= 3.4.2.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Version 1.1.1 (2017-10-22)
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
|
|
Compatibility notes:
|
|
|
|
- The deprecated --no-files-cache is not a global/common option any more,
|
|
but only available for borg create (it is not needed for anything else).
|
|
Use --files-cache=disabled instead of --no-files-cache.
|
|
- The nodump flag ("do not backup this file") is not honoured any more by
|
|
default because this functionality (esp. if it happened by error or
|
|
unexpected) was rather confusing and unexplainable at first to users.
|
|
If you want that "do not backup NODUMP-flagged files" behaviour, use:
|
|
borg create --exclude-nodump ...
|
|
- If you are on Linux and do not need bsdflags archived, consider using
|
|
``--nobsdflags`` with ``borg create`` to avoid additional syscalls and
|
|
speed up backup creation.
|
|
|
|
Fixes:
|
|
|
|
- borg recreate: correctly compute part file sizes. fixes cosmetic, but
|
|
annoying issue as borg check complains about size inconsistencies of part
|
|
files in affected archives. you can solve that by running borg recreate on
|
|
these archives, see also #3157.
|
|
- bsdflags support: do not open BLK/CHR/LNK files, avoid crashes and
|
|
slowness, #3130
|
|
- recreate: don't crash on attic archives w/o time_end, #3109
|
|
- don't crash on repository filesystems w/o hardlink support, #3107
|
|
- don't crash in first part of truncate_and_unlink, #3117
|
|
- fix server-side IndexError crash with clients < 1.0.7, #3192
|
|
- don't show traceback if only a global option is given, show help, #3142
|
|
- cache: use SaveFile for more safety, #3158
|
|
- init: fix wrong encryption choices in command line parser, fix missing
|
|
"authenticated-blake2", #3103
|
|
- move --no-files-cache from common to borg create options, #3146
|
|
- fix detection of non-local path (failed on ..filename), #3108
|
|
- logging with fileConfig: set json attr on "borg" logger, #3114
|
|
- fix crash with relative BORG_KEY_FILE, #3197
|
|
- show excluded dir with "x" for tagged dirs / caches, #3189
|
|
|
|
New features:
|
|
|
|
- create: --nobsdflags and --exclude-nodump options, #3160
|
|
- extract: --nobsdflags option, #3160
|
|
|
|
Other changes:
|
|
|
|
- remove annoying hardlinked symlinks warning, #3175
|
|
- vagrant: use self-made FreeBSD 10.3 box, #3022
|
|
- travis: don't brew update, hopefully fixes #2532
|
|
- docs:
|
|
|
|
- readme: -e option is required in borg 1.1
|
|
- add example showing --show-version --show-rc
|
|
- use --format rather than --list-format (deprecated) in example
|
|
- update docs about hardlinked symlinks limitation
|
|
|
|
|
|
Version 1.1.0 (2017-10-07)
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
|
|
Compatibility notes:
|
|
|
|
- borg command line: do not put options in between positional arguments
|
|
|
|
This sometimes works (e.g. it worked in borg 1.0.x), but can easily stop
|
|
working if we make positional arguments optional (like it happened for
|
|
borg create's "paths" argument in 1.1). There are also places in borg 1.0
|
|
where we do that, so it doesn't work there in general either. #3356
|
|
|
|
Good: borg create -v --stats repo::archive path
|
|
Good: borg create repo::archive path -v --stats
|
|
Bad: borg create repo::archive -v --stats path
|
|
|
|
Fixes:
|
|
|
|
- fix LD_LIBRARY_PATH restoration for subprocesses, #3077
|
|
- "auto" compression: make sure expensive compression is actually better,
|
|
otherwise store lz4 compressed data we already computed.
|
|
|
|
Other changes:
|
|
|
|
- docs:
|
|
|
|
- FAQ: we do not implement futile attempts of ETA / progress displays
|
|
- manpage: fix typos, update homepage
|
|
- implement simple "issue" role for manpage generation, #3075
|
|
|
|
|
|
Version 1.1.0rc4 (2017-10-01)
|
|
-----------------------------
|
|
|
|
Compatibility notes:
|
|
|
|
- A borg server >= 1.1.0rc4 does not support borg clients 1.1.0b3-b5. #3033
|
|
- The files cache is now controlled differently and has a new default mode:
|
|
|
|
- the files cache now uses ctime by default for improved file change
|
|
detection safety. You can still use mtime for more speed and less safety.
|
|
- --ignore-inode is deprecated (use --files-cache=... without "inode")
|
|
- --no-files-cache is deprecated (use --files-cache=disabled)
|
|
|
|
New features:
|
|
|
|
- --files-cache - implement files cache mode control, #911
|
|
You can now control the files cache mode using this option:
|
|
--files-cache={ctime,mtime,size,inode,rechunk,disabled}
|
|
(only some combinations are supported). See the docs for details.
|
|
|
|
Fixes:
|
|
|
|
- remote progress/logging: deal with partial lines, #2637
|
|
- remote progress: flush json mode output
|
|
- fix subprocess environments, #3050 (and more)
|
|

|
|
|
|
- upgrade to FUSE for macOS 3.7.1
|
|
- use Python 3.5.4 to build the binaries
|
|
- docs:
|
|
|
|
- security: change-passphrase only changes the passphrase, #2990
|
|
- fixed/improved borg create --compression examples, #3034
|
|
- add note about metadata dedup and --no[ac]time, #2518
|
|
- twitter account @borgbackup now, better visible, #2948
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
Version 1.1.0rc3 (2017-09-10)
|
|
-----------------------------
|
|
|
|
New features:
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
Version 1.1.0rc2 (2017-08-28)
|
|
-----------------------------
|
|
|
|
Compatibility notes:
|
|
|
|
- list: corrected mix-up of "isomtime" and "mtime" formats. Previously,
|
|
"isomtime" was the default but produced a verbose human format,
|
|
while "mtime" produced a ISO-8601-like format.
|
|
The behaviours have been swapped (so "mtime" is human, "isomtime" is ISO-like),
|
|
and the default is now "mtime".
|
|
"isomtime" is now a real ISO-8601 format ("T" between date and time, not a space).
|
|
|
|
New features:
|
|
|
|
- None.
|
|
|

Version 1.1.0b6 (2017-06-18)
|
|
----------------------------
|
|
|
|
Compatibility notes:
|
|
|
|
- Running "borg init" via a "borg serve --append-only" server will *not* create
|
|
an append-only repository anymore. Use "borg init --append-only" to initialize
|
|
an append-only repository.
|
|
|
|
- Repositories in the "repokey" and "repokey-blake2" modes with an empty passphrase
|
|
are now treated as unencrypted repositories for security checks (e.g.
|
|
BORG_UNKNOWN_UNENCRYPTED_REPO_ACCESS_IS_OK).
|
|
|
|
Previously there would be no prompts nor messages if an unknown repository
|
|
in one of these modes with an empty passphrase was encountered. This would
|
|
allow an attacker to swap a repository, if one assumed that the lack of
|
|
password prompts was due to a set BORG_PASSPHRASE.
|
|
|
|
Since the "trick" does not work if BORG_PASSPHRASE is set, this does generally
|
|
not affect scripts.
|
|
|
|
- Repositories in the "authenticated" mode are now treated as the unencrypted
|
|
repositories they are.
|
|
|
|
- The client-side temporary repository cache now holds unencrypted data for better speed.
|
|
|
|
- borg init: removed the short form of --append-only (-a).
|
|
|
|
- borg upgrade: removed the short form of --inplace (-i).
|
|
|
|
New features:
|
|
|
|
- reimplemented the RepositoryCache, size-limited caching of decrypted repo
|
|
contents, integrity checked via xxh64. #2515
|
|
- reduced space usage of chunks.archive.d. Existing caches are migrated during
|
|
a cache sync. #235 #2638
|
|
- integrity checking using xxh64 for important files used by borg, #1101:
|
|
|
|
- repository: index and hints files
|
|
- cache: chunks and files caches, chunks.archive.d
|
|
- improve cache sync speed, #1729
|
|
- create: new --no-cache-sync option
|
|
- add repository mandatory feature flags infrastructure, #1806
|
|
- Verify most operations against SecurityManager. Location, manifest timestamp
|
|
and key types are now checked for almost all non-debug commands. #2487
|
|

|
|
- serve: add --restrict-to-repository, #2589
|
|
- BORG_PASSCOMMAND: use external tool providing the key passphrase, #2573

|
|
- list: --json-lines instead of --json for archive contents, #2439
|
|
- add --debug-profile option (and also "borg debug convert-profile"), #2473
|
|
- implement --glob-archives/-a, #2448
|
|
- normalize authenticated key modes for better naming consistency:
|
|
|
|
- rename "authenticated" to "authenticated-blake2" (uses blake2b)
|
|
- implement "authenticated" mode (uses hmac-sha256)
|
|
|
|
Fixes:
|
|
|
|
- hashindex: read/write indices >2 GiB on 32bit systems, better error
|
|
reporting, #2496
|
|
- repository URLs: implement IPv6 address support and also more informative
|
|
error message when parsing fails.

Version 1.1.0b4 (2017-03-27)
|
|

- create: move item flags to main doc
|
|
- fix examples using borg init without -e/--encryption
|
|
- list: don't print key listings in fat (html + man)
|
|
- remove Python API docs (were very incomplete, build problems on RTFD)
|
|
- added FAQ section about backing up root partition
|
|
|
|
|
|
Version 1.0.10 (2017-02-13)
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
Bug fixes:
|
|
|
|
- Manifest timestamps are now monotonically increasing,
|
|
this fixes issues when the system clock jumps backwards
|
|
or is set inconsistently across computers accessing the same repository, #2115
|
|
- Fixed testing regression in 1.0.10rc1 that lead to a hard dependency on
|
|
py.test >= 3.0, #2112
|
|
|
|
New features:
|
|
|
|
- "key export" can now generate a printable HTML page with both a QR code and
|
|
a human-readable "paperkey" representation (and custom text) through the
|
|
``--qr-html`` option.
|
|
|
|
The same functionality is also available through `paperkey.html <paperkey.html>`_,
|
|
which is the same HTML page generated by ``--qr-html``. It works with existing
|
|
"key export" files and key files.
|
|
|
|
Other changes:
|
|
|
|
- docs:
|
|
|
|
- language clarification - "borg create --one-file-system" option does not respect
|
|
mount points, but considers different file systems instead, #2141
|
|
- setup.py: build_api: sort file list for determinism
|
|
|
|
|
|
Version 1.1.0b3 (2017-01-15)
|
|
----------------------------
|
|
|
|
Compatibility notes:
|
|
|
|
- borg init: removed the default of "--encryption/-e", #1979
|
|
This was done so users do a informed decision about -e mode.
|
|
|
|
Bug fixes:
|
|
|
|
- borg recreate: don't rechunkify unless explicitly told so
|
|
- borg info: fixed bug when called without arguments, #1914
|
|
- borg init: fix free space check crashing if disk is full, #1821
|
|
- borg debug delete/get obj: fix wrong reference to exception
|
|
- fix processing of remote ~/ and ~user/ paths (regressed since 1.1.0b1), #1759
|
|
- posix platform module: only build / import on non-win32 platforms, #2041
|
|
|
|
New features:
|
|
|
|
- new CRC32 implementations that are much faster than the zlib one used previously, #1970
|
|
- add blake2b key modes (use blake2b as MAC). This links against system libb2,
|
|
if possible, otherwise uses bundled code
|
|
- automatically remove stale locks - set BORG_HOSTNAME_IS_UNIQUE env var
|
|
to enable stale lock killing. If set, stale locks in both cache and
|
|
repository are deleted. #562 #1253
|
|
- borg info <repo>: print general repo information, #1680
|
|
- borg check --first / --last / --sort / --prefix, #1663
|
|

|
|
- implement "health" item formatter key, #1749
|
|
- BORG_SECURITY_DIR to remember security related infos outside the cache.
|
|
Key type, location and manifest timestamp checks now survive cache
|
|
deletion. This also means that you can now delete your cache and avoid
|
|
previous warnings, since Borg can still tell it's safe.
|
|
- implement BORG_NEW_PASSPHRASE, #1768
|
|
|
|
Other changes:
|
|
|
|
- borg recreate:
|
|
|
|
- remove special-cased --dry-run
|
|
- update --help
|
|
- remove bloat: interruption blah, autocommit blah, resuming blah
|
|
- re-use existing checkpoint functionality
|
|
- archiver tests: add check_cache tool - lints refcounts
|
|
|
|
- fixed cache sync performance regression from 1.1.0b1 onwards, #1940
|
|
- syncing the cache without chunks.archive.d (see :ref:`disable_archive_chunks`)
|
|
now avoids any merges and is thus faster, #1940
|
|
- borg check --verify-data: faster due to linear on-disk-order scan
|
|
- borg debug-xxx commands removed, we use "debug xxx" subcommands now, #1627
|
|
- improve metadata handling speed
|
|
- shortcut hashindex_set by having hashindex_lookup hint about address
|
|
- improve / add progress displays, #1721
|
|
- check for index vs. segment files object count mismatch
|
|
- make RPC protocol more extensible: use named parameters.
|
|

|
|
- clarify cache/repository README file
|
|
|
|
- docs:
|
|
|
|
- quickstart: add a comment about other (remote) filesystems
|
|
- quickstart: only give one possible ssh url syntax, all others are
|
|
documented in usage chapter.
|
|
- mention file://
|
|
- document repo URLs / archive location
|
|
- clarify borg diff help, #980
|
|
- deployment: synthesize alternative --restrict-to-path example
|
|
- improve cache / index docs, esp. files cache docs, #1825
|
|
- document using "git merge 1.0-maint -s recursive -X rename-threshold=20%"
|
|
for avoiding troubles when merging the 1.0-maint branch into master.
|
|
|
|
- tests:
|
|
|
|
- FUSE tests: catch ENOTSUP on freebsd
|
|
- FUSE tests: test troublesome xattrs last
|
|
- fix byte range error in test, #1740
|
|
- use monkeypatch to set env vars, but only on pytest based tests.
|
|
- point XDG_*_HOME to temp dirs for tests, #1714
|
|
- remove all BORG_* env vars from the outer environment
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
- When running out of buffer memory when reading xattrs, only skip the
|
|
current file, #1993
|
|
- Fixed "borg upgrade --tam" crashing with unencrypted repositories. Since

Version 1.0.9 (2016-12-20)
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
|
|
Security fixes:
|
|
|
|
- A flaw in the cryptographic authentication scheme in Borg allowed an attacker
|
|
to spoof the manifest. See :ref:`tam_vuln` above for the steps you should
|
|
take.
|
|
|
|
CVE-2016-10099 was assigned to this vulnerability.
|
|
- borg check: When rebuilding the manifest (which should only be needed very rarely)
|
|
duplicate archive names would be handled on a "first come first serve" basis, allowing
|
|
an attacker to apparently replace archives.
|
|
|
|
CVE-2016-10100 was assigned to this vulnerability.
|
|
|
|
Bug fixes:
|
|
|
|
- borg check:
|
|
|
|
- rebuild manifest if it's corrupted
|
|
- skip corrupted chunks during manifest rebuild
|
|
- fix TypeError in integrity error handler, #1903, #1894
|
|
- fix location parser for archives with @ char (regression introduced in 1.0.8), #1930

Version 1.0.9rc1 (2016-11-27)
|
|
-----------------------------
|
|
|
|
Bug fixes:
|
|
|
|
- files cache: fix determination of newest mtime in backup set (which is
|
|
used in cache cleanup and led to wrong "A" [added] status for unchanged
|
|
files in next backup), #1860.
|
|
|
|
- borg check:
|
|
|
|
- fix incorrectly reporting attic 0.13 and earlier archives as corrupt
|

|
|
*completely* empty, #1815.
|
|

|
|
- at xattr module import time, loggers are not initialized yet
|
|
|
|
New features:
|
|
|
|
- borg umount <mountpoint>
|
|
exposed already existing umount code via the CLI api, so users can use it,
|
|
which is more consistent than using borg to mount and fusermount -u (or
|
|
umount) to un-mount, #1855.
|
|
- implement borg create --noatime --noctime, fixes #1853
|
|

|
|
----------------------------
|
|
|
|
Bug fixes:
|
|
|
|
- fix incorrect preservation of delete tags, leading to "object count mismatch"
|
|
on borg check, #1598. This only occurred with 1.1.0b1 (not with 1.0.x) and is

|
- borg help compression, #1582

|
|
"repaired" immediately and maybe healed later.

|
|
|
|
- covers --first/--last/--prefix/--sort-by options
|
|
- currently used for borg list/info/delete
|
|
|
|
Other changes:
|
|
|
|
- borg check --verify-data slightly tuned (use get_many())
|
|
- change {utcnow} and {now} to ISO-8601 format ("T" date/time separator)
|
|

|
|
- Vagrantfile: use TW's fresh-bootloader pyinstaller branch

|
- hashindex: bump api_version
|
|

|
|
- borg with-lock: execute a command with the repository locked, #990

|
- new keys: csize, num_chunks, unique_chunks, NUL
|
|
- supports guaranteed_available hashlib hashes
|
|
(to avoid varying functionality depending on environment),
|
|
which includes the SHA1 and SHA2 family as well as MD5
|
|
- borg prune:
|
|
|
|
- to better visualize the "thinning out", we now list all archives in
|
|
reverse time order. rephrase and reorder help text.
|
|
- implement --keep-last N via --keep-secondly N, also --keep-minutely.
|

placeholders you can now also get e.g. 1 or 1.0 or 1.0.8.
|
|
|
|
Other changes:
|
|
|
|
- avoid previous_location mismatch, #1741
|
|
|
|
due to the changed canonicalization for relative paths in PR #1711 / #1655
|
|
(implement /./ relpath hack), there would be a changed repo location warning
|
|
and the user would be asked if this is ok. this would break automation and
|
|
require manual intervention, which is unwanted.
|
|
|
|
thus, we automatically fix the previous_location config entry, if it only
|
|
changed in the expected way, but still means the same location.

Version 1.0.8rc1 (2016-10-17)
|
|
-----------------------------
|
|
|
|
Bug fixes:
|
|
|
|
- fix signal handling (SIGINT, SIGTERM, SIGHUP), #1620 #1593
|
|
Fixes e.g. leftover lock files for quickly repeated signals (e.g. Ctrl-C
|
|
Ctrl-C) or lost connections or systemd sending SIGHUP.
|
|
- progress display: adapt formatting to narrow screens, do not crash, #1628
|
|
- borg create --read-special - fix crash on broken symlink, #1584.
|
|
also correctly processes broken symlinks. before this regressed to a crash
|
|
(5b45385) a broken symlink would've been skipped.
|
|
- process_symlink: fix missing backup_io()
|
|
Fixes a chmod/chown/chgrp/unlink/rename/... crash race between getting
|
|
dirents and dispatching to process_symlink.
|
|
- yes(): abort on wrong answers, saying so, #1622
|
|
- fixed exception borg serve raised when connection was closed before repository
|
|
was opened. Add an error message for this.
|
|
- fix read-from-closed-FD issue, #1551
|
|
(this seems not to get triggered in 1.0.x, but was discovered in master)
|
|
- hashindex: fix iterators (always raise StopIteration when exhausted)
|
|
(this seems not to get triggered in 1.0.x, but was discovered in master)
|
|
- enable relative paths in ssh:// repo URLs, via /./relpath hack, #1655
|
|
- allow repo paths with colons, #1705
|
|
- update changed repo location immediately after acceptance, #1524
|
|
- fix debug get-obj / delete-obj crash if object not found and remote repo,
|
|
#1684
|
|
- pyinstaller: use a spec file to build borg.exe binary, exclude osxfuse dylib
|
|
on Mac OS X (avoids mismatch lib <-> driver), #1619
|
|
|
|
New features:
|
|
|
|
- add "borg key export" / "borg key import" commands, #1555, so users are able
|
|
to backup / restore their encryption keys more easily.
|
|
|
|
Supported formats are the keyfile format used by borg internally and a
|
|
special "paper" format with by line checksums for printed backups. For the
|
|
paper format, the import is an interactive process which checks each line as
|
|
soon as it is input.
|
|
- add "borg debug-refcount-obj" to determine a repo objects' referrer counts,
|
|
#1352
|
|
|
|
Other changes:
|
|
|
|
- add "borg debug ..." subcommands
|
|
(borg debug-* still works, but will be removed in borg 1.1)
|
|
- setup.py: Add subcommand support to build_usage.
|
|
- remote: change exception message for unexpected RPC data format to indicate
|
|
dataflow direction.
|
|
- improved messages / error reporting:
|
|
|
|
- IntegrityError: add placeholder for message, so that the message we give
|
|
appears not only in the traceback, but also in the (short) error message,
|
|
#1572
|
|
- borg.key: include chunk id in exception msgs, #1571
|
|
- better messages for cache newer than repo, #1700
|

|
|
|
|
- upgrade OSXfuse / FUSE for macOS to 3.5.2
|
|
- update Debian Wheezy boxes, #1686
|
|
- openbsd / netbsd: use own boxes, fixes misc rsync installation and
|
|
FUSE/llfuse related testing issues, #1695 #1696 #1670 #1671 #1728
|
|

|
- travis: test FUSE-enabled borg, use trusty to have a recent FUSE
|
|
- re-enable FUSE tests for RemoteArchiver (no deadlocks any more)

Version 1.0.7 (2016-08-19)
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
|
|
Security fixes:
|
|
|
|
- borg serve: fix security issue with remote repository access, #1428
|
|
If you used e.g. --restrict-to-path /path/client1/ (with or without trailing
|
|
slash does not make a difference), it acted like a path prefix match using
|
|
/path/client1 (note the missing trailing slash) - the code then also allowed
|
|
working in e.g. /path/client13 or /path/client1000.
|
|
|
|
As this could accidentally lead to major security/privacy issues depending on
|
|
the paths you use, the behaviour was changed to be a strict directory match.
|
|
That means --restrict-to-path /path/client1 (with or without trailing slash
|
|
does not make a difference) now uses /path/client1/ internally (note the
|
|
trailing slash here!) for matching and allows precisely that path AND any
|
|
path below it. So, /path/client1 is allowed, /path/client1/repo1 is allowed,
|
|
but not /path/client13 or /path/client1000.
|
|
|
|
If you willingly used the undocumented (dangerous) previous behaviour, you
|
|
may need to rearrange your --restrict-to-path paths now. We are sorry if
|
|
that causes work for you, but we did not want a potentially dangerous
|
|
behaviour in the software (not even using a for-backwards-compat option).
|
|
|
|
Bug fixes:
|
|
|
|
- fixed repeated LockTimeout exceptions when borg serve tried to write into
|
|
a already write-locked repo (e.g. by a borg mount), #502 part b)
|
|
This was solved by the fix for #1220 in 1.0.7rc1 already.
|
|
- fix cosmetics + file leftover for "not a valid borg repository", #1490
|
|
- Cache: release lock if cache is invalid, #1501
|
|
- borg extract --strip-components: fix leak of preloaded chunk contents
|
|
- Repository, when a InvalidRepository exception happens:
|
|
|
|
- fix spurious, empty lock.roster
|
|
- fix repo not closed cleanly
|
|
|
|
New features:
|
|
|
|
- implement borg debug-info, fixes #1122
|
|
(just calls already existing code via cli, same output as below tracebacks)
|
|
|
|
Other changes:
|
|
|
|
- skip the O_NOATIME test on GNU Hurd, fixes #1315
|
|
(this is a very minor issue and the GNU Hurd project knows the bug)
|
|
- document using a clean repo to test / build the release
|
|
|
|
|
|
Version 1.0.7rc2 (2016-08-13)
|
|
-----------------------------
|
|
|
|
Bug fixes:
|
|
|
|
- do not write objects to repository that are bigger than the allowed size,
|
|
borg will reject reading them, #1451.
|
|
|
|
Important: if you created archives with many millions of files or
|
|
directories, please verify if you can open them successfully,
|
|
e.g. try a "borg list REPO::ARCHIVE".
|
|
- lz4 compression: dynamically enlarge the (de)compression buffer, the static
|
|
buffer was not big enough for archives with extremely many items, #1453
|
|
- larger item metadata stream chunks, raise archive item limit by 8x, #1452
|
|
- fix untracked segments made by moved DELETEs, #1442
|
|
|
|
Impact: Previously (metadata) segments could become untracked when deleting data,
|
|
these would never be cleaned up.
|
|
- extended attributes (xattrs) related fixes:
|
|
|
|
- fixed a race condition in xattrs querying that led to the entire file not
|
|
being backed up (while logging the error, exit code = 1), #1469
|
|
- fixed a race condition in xattrs querying that led to a crash, #1462
|
|
- raise OSError including the error message derived from errno, deal with
|
|
path being a integer FD
|
|
|
|
Other changes:
|
|
|
|
- print active env var override by default, #1467
|
|
- xattr module: refactor code, deduplicate, clean up
|
|
- repository: split object size check into too small and too big
|
|
- add a transaction_id assertion, so borg init on a broken (inconsistent)
|
|
filesystem does not look like a coding error in borg, but points to the
|
|
real problem.
|
|
- explain confusing TypeError caused by compat support for old servers, #1456
|
|
- add forgotten usage help file from build_usage
|
|
- refactor/unify buffer code into helpers.Buffer class, add tests
|
|
- docs:
|
|
|
|
- document archive limitation, #1452
|
|
- improve prune examples
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
-----------------------------
|
|
|
|
Bug fixes:
|
|
|
|
- fix repo lock deadlocks (related to lock upgrade), #1220
|
|
- catch unpacker exceptions, resync, #1351
|
|
- fix borg break-lock ignoring BORG_REPO env var, #1324
|
|
- files cache performance fixes (fixes unnecessary re-reading/chunking/
|
|
hashing of unmodified files for some use cases):
|
|
|
|
- fix unintended file cache eviction, #1430
|
|
- implement BORG_FILES_CACHE_TTL, update FAQ, raise default TTL from 10
|
|
to 20, #1338
|
|
- FUSE:
|
|
|
|
- cache partially read data chunks (performance), #965, #966
|
|
- always create a root dir, #1125
|
|
- use an OrderedDict for helptext, making the build reproducible, #1346
|
|
- RemoteRepository init: always call close on exceptions, #1370 (cosmetic)
|
|
- ignore stdout/stderr broken pipe errors (cosmetic), #1116
|
|
|
|
New features:
|
|
|
|
- better borg versions management support (useful esp. for borg servers
|
|
wanting to offer multiple borg versions and for clients wanting to choose
|
|
a specific server borg version), #1392:
|
|
|
|
- add BORG_VERSION environment variable before executing "borg serve" via ssh
|
|
- add new placeholder {borgversion}
|
|
- substitute placeholders in --remote-path
|
|
|
|
- borg init --append-only option (makes using the more secure append-only mode
|
|
more convenient. when used remotely, this requires 1.0.7+ also on the borg
|
|
server), #1291.
|
|
|
|
Other changes:
|
|
|
|
- Vagrantfile:
|
|
|
|

|
|
- add notes about shell/sudo pitfalls with env. vars, #1380
|
|
- added platform feature matrix
|
|
- implement borg debug-dump-repo-objs
|
|
|
|
|
|
Version 1.0.6 (2016-07-12)
|
|
--------------------------

|
|
|

|
|
|
|

|
|
- misc docs: added data processing overview picture
|
|
|
|
|
|
Version 1.0.6rc1 (2016-07-10)
|
|
-----------------------------
|
|
|
|
New features:
|
|
|
|
- borg check --repair: heal damaged files if missing chunks re-appear (e.g. if
|
|
the previously missing chunk was added again in a later backup archive),
|
|
#148. (*) Also improved logging.
|
|
|
|
Bug fixes:
|
|
|
|
- sync_dir: silence fsync() failing with EINVAL, #1287
|
|
Some network filesystems (like smbfs) don't support this and we use this in
|
|
repository code.
|
|
- borg mount (FUSE):
|
|
|
|
- fix directories being shadowed when contained paths were also specified,
|
|
#1295
|
|
- raise I/O Error (EIO) on damaged files (unless -o allow_damaged_files is
|
|
used), #1302. (*)
|
|
- borg extract: warn if a damaged file is extracted, #1299. (*)
|
|
- Added some missing return code checks (ChunkIndex._add, hashindex_resize).
|
|
- borg check: fix/optimize initial hash table size, avoids resize of the table.
|
|
|
|
Other changes:
|
|
|
|
- tests:
|
|
|
|
- add more FUSE tests, #1284
|
|
- deduplicate FUSE (u)mount code
|
|
- fix borg binary test issues, #862
|
|
- docs:
|
|
|
|
- changelog: added release dates to older borg releases
|
|
- fix some sphinx (docs generator) warnings, #881
|
|
|
|
Notes:
|
|
|
|
(*) Some features depend on information (chunks_healthy list) added to item
|
|
metadata when a file with missing chunks was "repaired" using all-zero
|
|
replacement chunks. The chunks_healthy list is generated since borg 1.0.4,
|
|
thus borg can't recognize such "repaired" (but content-damaged) files if the
|
|
repair was done with an older borg version.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Version 1.0.5 (2016-07-07)
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
|
|
Bug fixes:
|
|
|
|
- borg mount: fix FUSE crash in xattr code on Linux introduced in 1.0.4, #1282
|
|
|
|
Other changes:
|
|
|
|
- backport some FAQ entries from master branch
|
|
- add release helper scripts
|
|
- Vagrantfile:
|
|
|
|
- centos6: no FUSE, don't build binary
|
|
- add xz for redhat-like dists
|
|
|
|
|
|
Version 1.0.4 (2016-07-07)
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
|
|
New features:
|
|
|
|
- borg serve --append-only, #1168
|
|
This was included because it was a simple change (append-only functionality
|
|
was already present via repository config file) and makes better security now
|
|
practically usable.
|
|
- BORG_REMOTE_PATH environment variable, #1258
|
|
This was included because it was a simple change (--remote-path cli option
|
|
was already present) and makes borg much easier to use if you need it.
|
|
- Repository: cleanup incomplete transaction on "no space left" condition.
|
|
In many cases, this can avoid a 100% full repo filesystem (which is very
|
|
problematic as borg always needs free space - even to delete archives).
|
|
|
|
Bug fixes:
|
|
|
|
- Fix wrong handling and reporting of OSErrors in borg create, #1138.
|
|
This was a serious issue: in the context of "borg create", errors like
|
|
repository I/O errors (e.g. disk I/O errors, ssh repo connection errors)
|
|
were handled badly and did not lead to a crash (which would be good for this
|
|
case, because the repo transaction would be incomplete and trigger a
|
|
transaction rollback to clean up).
|
|
Now, error handling for source files is cleanly separated from every other
|
|
error handling, so only problematic input files are logged and skipped.
|
|
- Implement fail-safe error handling for borg extract.
|
|
Note that this isn't nearly as critical as the borg create error handling
|
|
bug, since nothing is written to the repo. So this was "merely" misleading
|
|
error reporting.
|
|
- Add missing error handler in directory attr restore loop.
|
|
- repo: make sure write data hits disk before the commit tag (#1236) and also
|
|
sync the containing directory.
|
|
- FUSE: getxattr fail must use errno.ENOATTR, #1126
|
|
(fixes Mac OS X Finder malfunction: "zero bytes" file length, access denied)
|
|
- borg check --repair: do not lose information about the good/original chunks.
|
|
If we do not lose the original chunk IDs list when "repairing" a file
|
|
(replacing missing chunks with all-zero chunks), we have a chance to "heal"
|
|
the file back into its original state later, in case the chunks re-appear
|
|
(e.g. in a fresh backup). Healing is not implemented yet, see #148.
|
|
- fixes for --read-special mode:
|
|
|
|
- ignore known files cache, #1241
|
|
- fake regular file mode, #1214
|
|
- improve symlinks handling, #1215
|
|
- remove passphrase from subprocess environment, #1105
|
|
- Ignore empty index file (will trigger index rebuild), #1195
|
|
- add missing placeholder support for --prefix, #1027
|
|
- improve exception handling for placeholder replacement
|
|
- catch and format exceptions in arg parsing
|
|
- helpers: fix "undefined name 'e'" in exception handler
|
|
- better error handling for missing repo manifest, #1043
|
|
- borg delete:
|
|
|
|
- make it possible to delete a repo without manifest
|
|
- borg delete --forced allows one to delete corrupted archives, #1139
|
|
- borg check:
|
|
|
|
- make borg check work for empty repo
|
|
- fix resync and msgpacked item qualifier, #1135
|
|
- rebuild_manifest: fix crash if 'name' or 'time' key were missing.
|
|
- better validation of item metadata dicts, #1130
|
|
- better validation of archive metadata dicts
|
|
- close the repo on exit - even if rollback did not work, #1197.
|
|
This is rather cosmetic, it avoids repo closing in the destructor.
|
|
|
|
- tests:
|
|
|
|
- fix sparse file test, #1170
|
|
- flake8: ignore new F405, #1185
|
|
- catch "invalid argument" on cygwin, #257
|
|
- fix sparseness assertion in test prep, #1264
|
|

Version 1.0.3 (2016-05-20)
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
|
|
Bug fixes:
|
|
|
|
- prune: avoid that checkpoints are kept and completed archives are deleted in
|
|
a prune run), #997
|
|
- prune: fix commandline argument validation - some valid command lines were
|
|
considered invalid (annoying, but harmless), #942
|
|
- fix capabilities extraction on Linux (set xattrs last, after chown()), #1069
|
|

|
|
- when probing key files, do binary reads. avoids crash when non-borg binary
|
|
files are located in borg's key files directory.

|
|
- repository cache: don't cache large objects (avoid using lots of temp. disk
|
|
space), #1063

Version 1.0.2 (2016-04-16)
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
|
|
Bug fixes:
|
|
|
|
- fix malfunction and potential corruption on (nowadays rather rare) big-endian
|
|
architectures or bi-endian archs in (rare) BE mode. #886, #889
|
|
|
|
cache resync / index merge was malfunctioning due to this, potentially
|
|
leading to data loss. borg info had cosmetic issues (displayed wrong values).
|
|
|
|
note: all (widespread) little-endian archs (like x86/x64) or bi-endian archs
|
|
in (widespread) LE mode (like ARMEL, MIPSEL, ...) were NOT affected.
|
|
- add overflow and range checks for 1st (special) uint32 of the hashindex
|
|
values, switch from int32 to uint32.
|
|
- fix so that refcount will never overflow, but just stick to max. value after
|
|
a overflow would have occurred.
|
|
- borg delete: fix --cache-only for broken caches, #874
|
|
|
|
Makes --cache-only idempotent: it won't fail if the cache is already deleted.
|
|
- fixed borg create --one-file-system erroneously traversing into other
|
|
filesystems (if starting fs device number was 0), #873
|
|
- workround a bug in Linux fadvise FADV_DONTNEED, #907
|
|
|
|
Other changes:
|
|
|
|
- better test coverage for hashindex, incl. overflow testing, checking correct
|
|
computations so endianness issues would be discovered.
|
|
- reproducible doc for ProgressIndicator*, make the build reproducible.
|
|
- use latest llfuse for vagrant machines
|
|
- docs:
|
|
|
|
- use /path/to/repo in examples, fixes #901
|
|
- fix confusing usage of "repo" as archive name (use "arch")
|
|
|
|
|
|
Version 1.0.1 (2016-04-08)
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
|
|
New features:
|
|
|
|
Usually there are no new features in a bugfix release, but these were added
|
|
due to their high impact on security/safety/speed or because they are fixes
|
|
also:
|
|
|
|
- append-only mode for repositories, #809, #36 (see docs)
|
|
- borg create: add --ignore-inode option to make borg detect unmodified files
|
|
even if your filesystem does not have stable inode numbers (like sshfs and
|
|
possibly CIFS).
|
|
- add options --warning, --error, --critical for missing log levels, #826.
|
|
it's not recommended to suppress warnings or errors, but the user may decide
|
|
this on his own.
|
|
note: --warning is not given to borg serve so a <= 1.0.0 borg will still
|
|
work as server (it is not needed as it is the default).
|
|
do not use --error or --critical when using a <= 1.0.0 borg server.
|
|
|
|
Bug fixes:
|
|
|
|
- fix silently skipping EIO, #748
|
|
- add context manager for Repository (avoid orphan repository locks), #285
|
|
- do not sleep for >60s while waiting for lock, #773
|
|
- unpack file stats before passing to FUSE
|
|
- fix build on illumos
|
|
- don't try to backup doors or event ports (Solaris and derivatives)
|
|
- remove useless/misleading libc version display, #738
|
|
- test suite: reset exit code of persistent archiver, #844
|
|
- RemoteRepository: clean up pipe if remote open() fails
|
|
- Remote: don't print tracebacks for Error exceptions handled downstream, #792
|
|
- if BORG_PASSPHRASE is present but wrong, don't prompt for password, but fail
|
|
instead, #791
|
|
- ArchiveChecker: move "orphaned objects check skipped" to INFO log level, #826
|
|
- fix capitalization, add ellipses, change log level to debug for 2 messages,
|
|
#798
|
|
|
|
Other changes:
|
|
|
|
- update llfuse requirement, llfuse 1.0 works
|
|
- update OS / dist packages on build machines, #717
|
|
- prefer showing --info over -v in usage help, #859
|
|
- docs:
|
|
|
|

|
|
- document how to debug / file filesystem issues, #664
|
|
- fix reproducible build of api docs

Version 1.0.0 (2016-03-05)
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
|
|
The major release number change (0.x -> 1.x) indicates bigger incompatible
|
|
changes, please read the compatibility notes, adapt / test your scripts and
|
|
check your backup logs.
|
|
|
|
Compatibility notes:
|
|
|
|
- drop support for python 3.2 and 3.3, require 3.4 or 3.5, #221 #65 #490
|
|
note: we provide binaries that include python 3.5.1 and everything else
|
|
needed. they are an option in case you are stuck with < 3.4 otherwise.
|
|
- change encryption to be on by default (using "repokey" mode)
|
|
- moved keyfile keys from ~/.borg/keys to ~/.config/borg/keys,
|
|
you can either move them manually or run "borg upgrade <REPO>"
|
|
- remove support for --encryption=passphrase,
|
|
use borg migrate-to-repokey to switch to repokey mode, #97
|
|
- remove deprecated --compression <number>,
|
|
use --compression zlib,<number> instead
|
|
in case of 0, you could also use --compression none
|
|
- remove deprecated --hourly/daily/weekly/monthly/yearly
|
|
use --keep-hourly/daily/weekly/monthly/yearly instead
|
|
- remove deprecated --do-not-cross-mountpoints,
|
|
use --one-file-system instead
|
|
- disambiguate -p option, #563:
|
|
|
|
- -p now is same as --progress
|
|
- -P now is same as --prefix
|
|
- remove deprecated "borg verify",
|
|
use "borg extract --dry-run" instead
|
|
- cleanup environment variable semantics, #355
|
|
the environment variables used to be "yes sayers" when set, this was
|
|
conceptually generalized to "automatic answerers" and they just give their
|
|
value as answer (as if you typed in that value when being asked).
|
|
See the "usage" / "Environment Variables" section of the docs for details.
|
|
- change the builtin default for --chunker-params, create 2MiB chunks, #343
|
|
--chunker-params new default: 19,23,21,4095 - old default: 10,23,16,4095
|
|
|
|
one of the biggest issues with borg < 1.0 (and also attic) was that it had a
|
|
default target chunk size of 64kiB, thus it created a lot of chunks and thus
|
|
also a huge chunk management overhead (high RAM and disk usage).
|
|
|
|
please note that the new default won't change the chunks that you already
|
|
have in your repository. the new big chunks do not deduplicate with the old
|
|
small chunks, so expect your repo to grow at least by the size of every
|
|
changed file and in the worst case (e.g. if your files cache was lost / is
|
|
not used) by the size of every file (minus any compression you might use).
|
|
|
|
in case you want to immediately see a much lower resource usage (RAM / disk)
|
|
for chunks management, it might be better to start with a new repo than
|
|
continuing in the existing repo (with an existing repo, you'ld have to wait
|
|
until all archives with small chunks got pruned to see a lower resource
|
|
usage).
|
|
|
|
if you used the old --chunker-params default value (or if you did not use
|
|
--chunker-params option at all) and you'ld like to continue using small
|
|
chunks (and you accept the huge resource usage that comes with that), just
|
|
explicitly use borg create --chunker-params=10,23,16,4095.
|
|
- archive timestamps: the 'time' timestamp now refers to archive creation
|
|
start time (was: end time), the new 'time_end' timestamp refers to archive
|
|
creation end time. This might affect prune if your backups take rather long.
|
|
if you give a timestamp via cli this is stored into 'time', therefore it now
|
|
needs to mean archive creation start time.
|
|
|
|

Other changes:
|
|
|
|
- it is now possible to use "pip install borgbackup[fuse]" to automatically
|
|
install the llfuse dependency using the correct version requirement
|
|
for it. you still need to care about having installed the FUSE / build
|
|
related OS package first, though, so that building llfuse can succeed.
|
|
- Vagrant: drop Ubuntu Precise (12.04) - does not have Python >= 3.4

|
|
newer did not support py 3.2 any more
|
|

|
Version 0.30.0 (2016-01-23)
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
Compatibility notes:
|
|
|
|
- you may need to use -v (or --info) more often to actually see output emitted
|
|
at INFO log level (because it is suppressed at the default WARNING log level).
|
|
See the "general" section in the usage docs.
|
|
- for borg create, you need --list (additionally to -v) to see the long file
|
|
list (was needed so you can have e.g. --stats alone without the long list)
|
|
- see below about BORG_DELETE_I_KNOW_WHAT_I_AM_DOING (was:
|
|
BORG_CHECK_I_KNOW_WHAT_I_AM_DOING)
|
|
|
|
Bug fixes:
|
|
|
|
- fix crash when using borg create --dry-run --keep-tag-files, #570
|
|
- make sure teardown with cleanup happens for Cache and RepositoryCache,
|
|
avoiding leftover locks and TEMP dir contents, #285 (partially), #548
|
|
- fix locking KeyError, partial fix for #502
|
|
- log stats consistently, #526
|
|
- add abbreviated weekday to timestamp format, fixes #496
|
|

|
|
- unset LD_LIBRARY_PATH before invoking ssh, fixes strange OpenSSL library
|
|
version warning when using the borg binary, #514
|
|
- add some error handling/fallback for C library loading, #494
|
|
- added BORG_DELETE_I_KNOW_WHAT_I_AM_DOING for check in "borg delete", #503
|
|
- remove unused "repair" rpc method name
|
|
|
|
New features:
|
|
|
|
- borg create: implement exclusions using regular expression patterns.
|
|
- borg create: implement inclusions using patterns.
|
|
- borg extract: support patterns, #361
|
|
- support different styles for patterns:
|
|
|
|
- fnmatch (`fm:` prefix, default when omitted), like borg <= 0.29.
|
|
- shell (`sh:` prefix) with `*` not matching directory separators and
|
|
`**/` matching 0..n directories
|
|
- path prefix (`pp:` prefix, for unifying borg create pp1 pp2 into the
|
|
patterns system), semantics like in borg <= 0.29
|
|
- regular expression (`re:`), new!
|
|
- --progress option for borg upgrade (#291) and borg delete <archive>
|
|
- update progress indication more often (e.g. for borg create within big
|
|
files or for borg check repo), #500
|
|
- finer chunker granularity for items metadata stream, #547, #487
|
|
- borg create --list now used (additionally to -v) to enable the verbose
|
|
file list output
|
|
- display borg version below tracebacks, #532
|
|
|
|
Other changes:
|
|
|
|
- hashtable size (and thus: RAM and disk consumption) follows a growth policy:
|
|
grows fast while small, grows slower when getting bigger, #527
|
|
- Vagrantfile: use pyinstaller 3.1 to build binaries, freebsd sqlite3 fix,
|
|
fixes #569
|
|
- no separate binaries for centos6 any more because the generic linux binaries
|
|
also work on centos6 (or in general: on systems with a slightly older glibc
|
|
than debian7
|
|
- dev environment: require virtualenv<14.0 so we get a py32 compatible pip
|
|
- docs:
|
|
|
|
- add space-saving chunks.archive.d trick to FAQ
|
|

|
|
- development docs: run build_api and build_usage before tagging release
|
|
- internals docs: hash table max. load factor is 0.75 now
|
|
- markup, typo, grammar, phrasing, clarifications and other fixes.
|
|
- add gcc gcc-c++ to redhat/fedora/corora install docs, fixes #583
|
|
|
|
|
|
Version 0.29.0 (2015-12-13)
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
Compatibility notes:
|
|
|
|
- when upgrading to 0.29.0 you need to upgrade client as well as server
|
|
installations due to the locking and commandline interface changes otherwise
|
|
you'll get an error msg about a RPC protocol mismatch or a wrong commandline
|
|
option.
|
|
if you run a server that needs to support both old and new clients, it is
|
|
suggested that you have a "borg-0.28.2" and a "borg-0.29.0" command.
|
|
clients then can choose via e.g. "borg --remote-path=borg-0.29.0 ...".
|
|
- the default waiting time for a lock changed from infinity to 1 second for a
|
|
better interactive user experience. if the repo you want to access is
|
|
currently locked, borg will now terminate after 1s with an error message.
|
|
if you have scripts that shall wait for the lock for a longer time, use
|
|
--lock-wait N (with N being the maximum wait time in seconds).
|
|
|
|
Bug fixes:
|
|
|
|
- hash table tuning (better chosen hashtable load factor 0.75 and prime initial
|
|
size of 1031 gave ~1000x speedup in some scenarios)
|
|
- avoid creation of an orphan lock for one case, #285
|
|
- --keep-tag-files: fix file mode and multiple tag files in one directory, #432
|
|
- fixes for "borg upgrade" (attic repo converter), #466
|
|
- remove --progress isatty magic (and also --no-progress option) again, #476
|
|
- borg init: display proper repo URL
|
|
- fix format of umask in help pages, #463
|
|
|
|
New features:
|
|
|
|
- implement --lock-wait, support timeout for UpgradableLock, #210
|
|
- implement borg break-lock command, #157
|
|
- include system info below traceback, #324
|
|
- sane remote logging, remote stderr, #461:
|
|
|
|
- remote log output: intercept it and log it via local logging system,
|
|
with "Remote: " prefixed to message. log remote tracebacks.
|
|
- remote stderr: output it to local stderr with "Remote: " prefixed.
|
|
- add --debug and --info (same as --verbose) to set the log level of the
|
|
builtin logging configuration (which otherwise defaults to warning), #426
|
|
note: there are few messages emitted at DEBUG level currently.
|
|
- optionally configure logging via env var BORG_LOGGING_CONF
|
|
- add --filter option for status characters: e.g. to show only the added
|
|
or modified files (and also errors), use "borg create -v --filter=AME ...".
|
|
- more progress indicators, #394
|
|
- use ISO-8601 date and time format, #375
|
|
- "borg check --prefix" to restrict archive checking to that name prefix, #206
|
|
|
|

- borg create --exclude-if-present TAGFILE - exclude directories that have the
|
|
given file from the backup. You can additionally give --keep-tag-files to
|
|
preserve just the directory roots and the tag-files (but not backup other
|
|
directory contents), #395, attic #128, attic #142
|
|
|
|
Other changes:
|
|
|
|
- do not create docs sources at build time (just have them in the repo),
|
|
completely remove have_cython() hack, do not use the "mock" library at build
|
|
time, #384

|
|
|
|

|
|
- explain how to regenerate usage and API files (build_api or
|
|
build_usage) and when to commit usage files directly into git, #384
|
|
- minor install docs improvements

- replace versioneer with setuptools_scm, #106
|
|
- docs:
|

|
|
- be more clear about pruning, attic issue #132
|
|
- unit tests:
|
|

|
Version 0.25.0 (2015-08-29)
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
Compatibility notes:
|
|
|
|
- lz4 compression library (liblz4) is a new requirement (#156)
|
|
- the new compression code is very compatible: as long as you stay with zlib
|
|
compression, older borg releases will still be able to read data from a
|
|
repo/archive made with the new code (note: this is not the case for the
|
|
default "none" compression, use "zlib,0" if you want a "no compression" mode
|
|
that can be read by older borg). Also the new code is able to read repos and
|
|
archives made with older borg versions (for all zlib levels 0..9).
|
|
|
|
Deprecations:
|
|
|
|
- --compression N (with N being a number, as in 0.24) is deprecated.
|
|
We keep the --compression 0..9 for now to not break scripts, but it is
|
|
deprecated and will be removed later, so better fix your scripts now:
|
|
--compression 0 (as in 0.24) is the same as --compression zlib,0 (now).
|
|
BUT: if you do not want compression, you rather want --compression none
|
|
(which is the default).
|
|
--compression 1 (in 0.24) is the same as --compression zlib,1 (now)
|
|
--compression 9 (in 0.24) is the same as --compression zlib,9 (now)
|
|
|
|
New features:
|
|
|
|
- create --compression none (default, means: do not compress, just pass through
|
|
data "as is". this is more efficient than zlib level 0 as used in borg 0.24)
|
|
- create --compression lz4 (super-fast, but not very high compression)
|
|
- create --compression zlib,N (slower, higher compression, default for N is 6)
|
|
- create --compression lzma,N (slowest, highest compression, default N is 6)
|
|
- honor the nodump flag (UF_NODUMP) and do not backup such items
|
|
- list --short just outputs a simple list of the files/directories in an archive
|
|
|
|
Bug fixes:
|
|
|
|
- fixed --chunker-params parameter order confusion / malfunction, fixes #154
|
|
- close fds of segments we delete (during compaction)
|
|
- close files which fell out the lrucache
|
|
- fadvise DONTNEED now is only called for the byte range actually read, not for
|
|
the whole file, fixes #158.
|
|
- fix issue with negative "all archives" size, fixes #165
|
|
- restore_xattrs: ignore if setxattr fails with EACCES, fixes #162
|
|
|
|
Other changes:
|
|
|
|
- remove fakeroot requirement for tests, tests run faster without fakeroot
|
|
(test setup does not fail any more without fakeroot, so you can run with or
|
|
without fakeroot), fixes #151 and #91.
|
|
- more tests for archiver
|
|
- recover_segment(): don't assume we have an fd for segment
|
|
- lrucache refactoring / cleanup, add dispose function, py.test tests
|
|
- generalize hashindex code for any key length (less hardcoding)
|
|
- lock roster: catch file not found in remove() method and ignore it
|
|
- travis CI: use requirements file
|
|
- improved docs:
|
|
|
|
- replace hack for llfuse with proper solution (install libfuse-dev)
|
|
- update docs about compression
|
|
- update development docs about fakeroot
|
|
- internals: add some words about lock files / locking system
|
|
- support: mention BountySource and for what it can be used
|
|
- theme: use a lighter green
|
|
- add pypi, wheel, dist package based install docs
|
|
- split install docs into system-specific preparations and generic instructions
|
|
|
|
|
|
Version 0.24.0 (2015-08-09)
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
Incompatible changes (compared to 0.23):
|
|
|
|
- borg now always issues --umask NNN option when invoking another borg via ssh
|
|
on the repository server. By that, it's making sure it uses the same umask
|
|
for remote repos as for local ones. Because of this, you must upgrade both
|
|
server and client(s) to 0.24.
|
|
- the default umask is 077 now (if you do not specify via --umask) which might
|
|
be a different one as you used previously. The default umask avoids that
|
|
you accidentally give access permissions for group and/or others to files
|
|
created by borg (e.g. the repository).
|
|
|
|
Deprecations:
|
|
|
|
- "--encryption passphrase" mode is deprecated, see #85 and #97.
|
|
See the new "--encryption repokey" mode for a replacement.
|
|
|
|
New features:
|
|
|
|
- borg create --chunker-params ... to configure the chunker, fixes #16
|
|
(attic #302, attic #300, and somehow also #41).
|
|
This can be used to reduce memory usage caused by chunk management overhead,
|
|
so borg does not create a huge chunks index/repo index and eats all your RAM
|
|
if you back up lots of data in huge files (like VM disk images).
|
|
See docs/misc/create_chunker-params.txt for more information.
|
|
- borg info now reports chunk counts in the chunk index.
|
|
- borg create --compression 0..9 to select zlib compression level, fixes #66
|
|
(attic #295).
|
|
- borg init --encryption repokey (to store the encryption key into the repo),
|
|
fixes #85
|
|
- improve at-end error logging, always log exceptions and set exit_code=1
|
|
- LoggedIO: better error checks / exceptions / exception handling
|
|
- implement --remote-path to allow non-default-path borg locations, #125
|
|
- implement --umask M and use 077 as default umask for better security, #117
|
|
- borg check: give a named single archive to it, fixes #139
|
|
- cache sync: show progress indication
|
|
- cache sync: reimplement the chunk index merging in C
|
|
|
|
Bug fixes:
|
|
|
|
- fix segfault that happened for unreadable files (chunker: n needs to be a
|
|
signed size_t), #116
|
|
- fix the repair mode, #144
|
|
- repo delete: add destroy to allowed rpc methods, fixes issue #114
|
|
- more compatible repository locking code (based on mkdir), maybe fixes #92
|
|
(attic #317, attic #201).
|
|
- better Exception msg if no Borg is installed on the remote repo server, #56
|
|
- create a RepositoryCache implementation that can cope with >2GiB,
|
|
fixes attic #326.
|
|
- fix Traceback when running check --repair, attic #232
|
|
- clarify help text, fixes #73.
|
|
- add help string for --no-files-cache, fixes #140
|
|
|
|
Other changes:
|
|
|
|
- improved docs:
|
|
|
|
- added docs/misc directory for misc. writeups that won't be included
|
|
"as is" into the html docs.
|
|
- document environment variables and return codes (attic #324, attic #52)
|

|
- short prune options without "keep-" are deprecated, do not suggest them

|
- improved tox configuration
|
|
- remove usage of unittest.mock, always use mock from pypi
|
|
- use entrypoints instead of scripts, for better use of the wheel format and
|
|
modern installs
|
|
- add requirements.d/development.txt and modify tox.ini
|
|
- use travis-ci for testing based on Linux and (new) OS X
|
|
- use coverage.py, pytest-cov and codecov.io for test coverage support
|
|
|
|
I forgot to list some stuff already implemented in 0.23.0, here they are:
|
|
|
|
New features:
|
|
|
|
- efficient archive list from manifest, meaning a big speedup for slow
|
|
repo connections and "list <repo>", "delete <repo>", "prune" (attic #242,
|
|
attic #167)
|
|
- big speedup for chunks cache sync (esp. for slow repo connections), fixes #18
|
|
- hashindex: improve error messages
|
|
|
|
Other changes:
|
|
|
|
- explicitly specify binary mode to open binary files
|
|
- some easy micro optimizations
|
|
|
|
|
|
Version 0.23.0 (2015-06-11)

|
Incompatible changes (compared to attic, fork related):

|
- package name (and name in urls) uses "borgbackup" to have fewer collisions
|
|
