Enhancement: Add comppression support
|
||
|
|
||
|
We have added compression support to the restic repository format. To create a
|
||
|
repository using the new format run `init --repository-version 2`. Please note
|
||
|
that the repository cannot be read by restic versions prior to 0.14.0.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The new format version has not received much testing yet. Do not rely on it as
|
||
|
your only backup copy! Please run `check` in regular intervals to detect any
|
||
|
problems.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Upgrading in place is not yet supported. As a workaround, first create a new
|
||
|
repository using `init --repository-version 2 --copy-chunker-params --repo2 path/to/old/repo`.
|
||
|
Then use the `copy` command to copy all snapshots to the new repository.
