Fwd: [rdiff-backup/rdiff-backup] Pre-release v2.1.0a1 - Alpha Release v2.1.0a1 - fix Windows 64 bits

[EricZolf]

Hi,

sorry for the noise but I had to fix the 64 bits version for Windows,
nothing else changed, so you don't need to care if you've already
started testing, e.g. under Linux.

KR, Eric

  Alpha Release v2.1.0a1 - fix Windows 64 bits

· Released by: github-actions[bot] <https://github.com/apps/github-actions>

The sole purpose of this release is to fix the issue with the 64 bits
build for Windows. Everything else is the same as v2.1.0a0.

This is an alpha release so that many people can test new features. All
changes are documented in the changelog
<https://github.com/rdiff-backup/rdiff-backup/blob/v2.1.0a1/CHANGELOG.md#new-in-v210a1-2021-04-10>,
but the highlights are the new command line interface
<https://github.com/rdiff-backup/rdiff-backup/blob/v2.1.0a1/docs/migration.md#migration-from-old-to-new-cli>,
the |--help| option, the support of long names under Windows v1607 and
higher
<https://github.com/rdiff-backup/rdiff-backup/blob/v2.1.0a1/docs/Windows-README.md#installation>,
and the fixing of a few more long standing bugs.

Please use this release to test and report issues, especially regarding:

  * usage in client/server in combination with version v2.0.5 of
    rdiff-backup
  * do you like the new interface? Where is it not so intuitive?
  * usage under Windows (and MacOS/X)

It's an alpha version, everything might change, disappear and/or fail,
do *NOT* get in love with a specific feature and do *NOT* use this
version for production.

The installation procedure hasn't changed much and is available from the
readme
<https://github.com/rdiff-backup/rdiff-backup/blob/v2.1.0a1/README.md>
(alpha packages might or might not be offered by the maintainers, in
doubt install via |pip install rdiff-backup==2.1.0a1| under Linux and
use the attached binaries under Windows). You might want to use the
side-by-side installation
<https://github.com/rdiff-backup/rdiff-backup/blob/v2.1.0a1/docs/migration.md#side-by-side-installation>
to safeguard your productive installation.
