2022-11-10 22:04:44.630763
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : borgmatic
Product : Fedora 37
Version : 1.7.4
Release : 1.fc37
URL :
https://torsion.org/borgmatic
Summary : Simple Python wrapper script for borgbackup
Description :
borgmatic (formerly atticmatic) is a simple Python wrapper script for
the Borg backup software that initiates a backup, prunes any old backups
according to a retention policy, and validates backups for consistency.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
- [#596](https://projects.torsion.org/borgmatic-
collective/borgmatic/issues/596): Fix special file detection erroring when
broken symlinks are encountered. -
[#597](https://projects.torsion.org/borgmatic-collective/borgmatic/issues/597),
[#598](https://projects.torsion.org/borgmatic-collective/borgmatic/issues/598):
Fix regression in which "check" action errored on certain systems ("Cannot
determine Borg repository ID"). ---- -
[#357](https://projects.torsion.org/borgmatic-collective/borgmatic/issues/357):
Add "break-lock" action for removing any repository and cache locks leftover
from Borg aborting. - [#360](https://projects.torsion.org/borgmatic-
collective/borgmatic/issues/360): To prevent Borg hangs, unconditionally delete
stale named pipes before dumping databases. -
[#587](https://projects.torsion.org/borgmatic-collective/borgmatic/issues/587):
When database hooks are enabled, auto-exclude special files from a "create"
action to prevent Borg from hanging. You can override/prevent this
behavior by explicitly setting the "read_special" option to true. -
[#587](https://projects.torsion.org/borgmatic-collective/borgmatic/issues/587):
Warn when ignoring a configured "read_special" value of false, as true is
needed
when database hooks are enabled. -
[#589](https://projects.torsion.org/borgmatic-collective/borgmatic/issues/589):
Update sample systemd service file to allow system "idle" (e.g. a video monitor
turning off) while borgmatic is running. -
[#590](https://projects.torsion.org/borgmatic-collective/borgmatic/issues/590):
Fix for potential data loss (data not getting backed up) when the
"patterns_from" option was used with "source_directories" (or
the
"~/.borgmatic" path existed, which got injected into
"source_directories"
implicitly). The fix is for borgmatic to convert "source_directories" into
patterns whenever "patterns_from" is used, working around a Borg bug:
[htt
ps://github.com/borgbackup/borg/issues/6994](https://github.com/borgbacku...
issues/6994) - [#590](https://projects.torsion.org/borgmatic-
collective/borgmatic/issues/590): In "borgmatic create --list" output, display
which files get excluded from the backup due to patterns or excludes. -
[#591](https://projects.torsion.org/borgmatic-collective/borgmatic/issues/591):
Add support for Borg 2's "--match-archives" flag. This replaces
"--glob-
archives", which borgmatic now treats as an alias for
"--match-archives".
But note that the two flags have slightly different syntax. See the Borg 2
changelog for more information: [
https://borgbackup.readthedocs.io/en/2.0.
0b3/changes.html#version-2-0-0b3-2022-10-
02](https://borgbackup.readthedocs.io/en/2.0.0b3/changes.html#version-2-0-0b3-
2022-10-02) - Fix for "borgmatic --archive latest" not finding the latest
archive when a verbosity is set.
