Enhancement: Support `--group-by` for backup parent selection
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The backup command by default selected the parent snapshot based on the hostname
|
||
|
|
and the backup targets. When the backup path list changed, the backup command
|
||
|
|
was unable to determine a suitable parent snapshot and had to read all
|
||
|
|
files again.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The new `--group-by` option for the backup command allows filtering snapshots
|
||
|
|
for the parent selection by `host`, `paths` and `tags`. It defaults to
|
||
|
|
`host,paths` which selects the latest snapshot with hostname and paths matching
|
||
|
|
those of the backup run. It should be used consistently with `forget --group-by`.
