Folks,
This is the first release from Launchpad, and I'm glad I made the move.
The website is still on Savannah, but that will be changing.
Lots of fixes and some good changes. The major change is that duplicity
will synchronize the archive directory with the remote store on startup.
This fixes a number of issues that occurred when upgrading from the
0.5.x series. Please read the release notes below for details.
You can get it from https://launchpad.net/duplicity/trunk/0.6.01.
...Thanks,
...Ken
New in v0.6.01 (2009/07/01)
---------------------------
Fixed issues in Checkpoint/Restart:
* The --name backupname" option was added to allow the
user to separate one archive from another. If not
specified, the default is an MD5 hash of the target
URL, which should suffice for most uses.
* The archive_dir (cache) is now stored in a standard
location, defaulting to ~/.cache/duplicity. See
http://standards.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/latest/
* The interaction between the --archive-dir option and
the --name option allows for four possible results
for the location of the archive dir.
+ neither specified (default)
~/.cache/duplicity/hash-of-url
+ --archive-dir=~/arch, no --name
~/arch/hash-of-url
+ no --archive-dir, --name=foo
~/.cache/duplicity/foo
+ --archive-dir=~/arch, --name=foo
~/arch/foo
* duplicity will now copy needed metadata from the
remote store to the local cache as needed. This
means that the first use after upgraded from 0.5.x
will have the metadata copied to the local archive
dir in order to sync both.
* cleanup will now work correctly with the archive
dir and separates the local from the remote files.
