|
The output of the `diff` command now includes the modifier `?` for files to
|
|
|
|
|
indicate bitrot in backed up files. The `?` will appear whenever there is a
|
|
|
|
|
difference in content while the metadata is exactly the same.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Since files with unchanged metadata are normally not read again when creating
|
|
|
|
|
a backup, the detection is only effective when the right-hand side of the diff
|
|
|
|
|
has been created with `backup --force`.
