[duplicity] Duplicity 0.6.02 Released

Even though the list is short, this is a fairly important bug fix release. Plus, we have completed the process of making the cache consistent with the remote by adding a step that removes any spurious files left over from a previous duplicity run. ...Thanks, ...Ken New in v0.6.02 (2009/07/07) --------------------------- Duplicity will now remove any spurious files left in the cache from a previous run. This will keep the metadata cache in sync with the remote storage metadata. Bugs fixed this release: 394629 Hang on first collection-status 379386 Fix 'list-current-files' with missing archive dir 395826 "No such file or directory" when backing up second time 394627 User-friendly archive dir print 388699 Manifest mismatch error ------------------------------------------------------------------- And since it looks like I did not announce 0.6.01, here it is... 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.
