This implements @fd0's first idea here: <https://github.com/restic/restic/issues/542#issuecomment-328263959>. > First, I think it may be a good idea to print a warning message when a > symlinks is saved and the target of the symlink exists and is not > included in the backup.

In the interest of keeping restic's cli simple, and keeping people's data safe, I've opted to not make this configurable. I suppose you could call this a breaking change, but I personally consider it a fix: restic shouldn't claim it has successfully backed up a directory unless it can actually recreate the structure of that directory. IMO, it's better to fail-fast than to claim success, only to greatly disappoint someone later on. |
