  6. Pre-1.0.9 manifest spoofing vulnerability (CVE-2016-10099)
  7. ----------------------------------------------------------
  8. A flaw in the cryptographic authentication scheme in Borg allowed an attacker
  9. to spoof the manifest. The attack requires an attacker to be able to
  10. 1. insert files (with no additional headers) into backups
  11. 2. gain write access to the repository
  12. This vulnerability does not disclose plaintext to the attacker, nor does it
  13. affect the authenticity of existing archives.
  14. The vulnerability allows an attacker to create a spoofed manifest (the list of archives).
  15. Creating plausible fake archives may be feasible for small archives, but is unlikely
  16. for large archives.
  17. The fix adds a separate authentication tag to the manifest. For compatibility
  18. with prior versions this authentication tag is *not* required by default
  19. for existing repositories. Repositories created with 1.0.9 and later require it.
  20. Steps you should take:
  21. 1. Upgrade all clients to 1.0.9 or later.
  22. 2. Run ``borg upgrade --tam <repository>`` *on every client* for *each* repository.
  23. 3. This will list all archives, including archive IDs, for easy comparison with your logs.
  24. 4. Done.
  25. Prior versions can access and modify repositories with this measure enabled, however,
  26. to 1.0.9 or later their modifications are indiscernible from an attack and will
  27. raise an error until the below procedure is followed. We are aware that this can
  28. be be annoying in some circumstances, but don't see a way to fix the vulnerability
  29. otherwise.
  30. In case a version prior to 1.0.9 is used to modify a repository where above procedure
  31. was completed, and now you get an error message from other clients:
  32. 1. ``borg upgrade --tam --force <repository>`` once with *any* client suffices.
  33. This attack is mitigated by:
  34. - Noting/logging ``borg list``, ``borg info``, or ``borg create --stats``, which
  35. contain the archive IDs.
  36. We are not aware of others having discovered, disclosed or exploited this vulnerability.
  37. Vulnerability time line:
  38. * 2016-11-14: Vulnerability and fix discovered during review of cryptography by Marian Beermann (@enkore)
  39. * 2016-11-20: First patch
  40. * 2016-12-20: Released fixed version 1.0.9
  41. * 2017-01-02: CVE was assigned
  42. * 2017-01-15: Released fixed version 1.1.0b3 (fix was previously only available from source)
  43. .. _attic013_check_corruption:
  44. Pre-1.0.9 potential data loss
  45. -----------------------------
  46. If you have archives in your repository that were made with attic <= 0.13
  47. (and later migrated to borg), running borg check would report errors in these
  48. archives. See issue #1837.
  49. The reason for this is a invalid (and useless) metadata key that was
  50. always added due to a bug in these old attic versions.
  51. If you run borg check --repair, things escalate quickly: all archive items
  52. with invalid metadata will be killed. Due to that attic bug, that means all
  53. items in all archives made with these old attic versions.
  54. Pre-1.0.4 potential repo corruption
  55. -----------------------------------
  56. Some external errors (like network or disk I/O errors) could lead to
  57. corruption of the backup repository due to issue #1138.
  58. A sign that this happened is if "E" status was reported for a file that can
  59. not be explained by problems with the source file. If you still have logs from
  60. "borg create -v --list", you can check for "E" status.
  61. Here is what could cause corruption and what you can do now:
  62. 1) I/O errors (e.g. repo disk errors) while writing data to repo.
  63. This could lead to corrupted segment files.
  64. Fix::
  65. # check for corrupt chunks / segments:
  66. borg check -v --repository-only REPO
  67. # repair the repo:
  68. borg check -v --repository-only --repair REPO
  69. # make sure everything is fixed:
  70. borg check -v --repository-only REPO
  71. 2) Unreliable network / unreliable connection to the repo.
  72. This could lead to archive metadata corruption.
  73. Fix::
  74. # check for corrupt archives:
  75. borg check -v --archives-only REPO
  76. # delete the corrupt archives:
  77. borg delete --force REPO::CORRUPT_ARCHIVE
  78. # make sure everything is fixed:
  79. borg check -v --archives-only REPO
  80. 3) In case you want to do more intensive checking.
  81. The best check that everything is ok is to run a dry-run extraction::
  82. borg extract -v --dry-run REPO::ARCHIVE

  87. --------------------------
  88. Fixes:
  89. - fix LD_LIBRARY_PATH restoration for subprocesses, #3077
  90. - "auto" compression: make sure expensive compression is actually better,
  91. otherwise store lz4 compressed data we already computed.
  92. Other changes:
  93. - docs:
  94. - FAQ: we do not implement futile attempts of ETA / progress displays
  95. - manpage: fix typos, update homepage
  96. - implement simple "issue" role for manpage generation, #3075

  100. - A borg server >= 1.1.0rc4 does not support borg clients 1.1.0b3-b5. #3033
  101. - The files cache is now controlled differently and has a new default mode:
  102. - the files cache now uses ctime by default for improved file change
  103. detection safety. You can still use mtime for more speed and less safety.
  104. - --ignore-inode is deprecated (use --files-cache=... without "inode")
  105. - --no-files-cache is deprecated (use --files-cache=disabled)

  146. -----------------------------
  147. Compatibility notes:
  148. - list: corrected mix-up of "isomtime" and "mtime" formats. Previously,
  149. "isomtime" was the default but produced a verbose human format,
  150. while "mtime" produced a ISO-8601-like format.
  151. The behaviours have been swapped (so "mtime" is human, "isomtime" is ISO-like),
  152. and the default is now "mtime".
  153. "isomtime" is now a real ISO-8601 format ("T" between date and time, not a space).
  154. New features:
  155. - None.
  156. Fixes:
  157. - list: fix weird mixup of mtime/isomtime
  158. - create --timestamp: set start time, #2957
  159. - ignore corrupt files cache, #2939
  160. - migrate locks to child PID when daemonize is used
  161. - fix exitcode of borg serve, #2910
  162. - only compare contents when chunker params match, #2899
  163. - umount: try fusermount, then try umount, #2863

  239. ----------------------------
  240. Compatibility notes:
  241. - Running "borg init" via a "borg serve --append-only" server will *not* create
  242. an append-only repository anymore. Use "borg init --append-only" to initialize
  243. an append-only repository.
  244. - Repositories in the "repokey" and "repokey-blake2" modes with an empty passphrase
  245. are now treated as unencrypted repositories for security checks (e.g.
  246. BORG_UNKNOWN_UNENCRYPTED_REPO_ACCESS_IS_OK).
  247. Previously there would be no prompts nor messages if an unknown repository
  248. in one of these modes with an empty passphrase was encountered. This would
  249. allow an attacker to swap a repository, if one assumed that the lack of
  250. password prompts was due to a set BORG_PASSPHRASE.
  251. Since the "trick" does not work if BORG_PASSPHRASE is set, this does generally
  252. not affect scripts.
  253. - Repositories in the "authenticated" mode are now treated as the unencrypted
  254. repositories they are.
  255. - The client-side temporary repository cache now holds unencrypted data for better speed.
  256. - borg init: removed the short form of --append-only (-a).
  257. - borg upgrade: removed the short form of --inplace (-i).
  258. New features:
  259. - reimplemented the RepositoryCache, size-limited caching of decrypted repo
  260. contents, integrity checked via xxh64. #2515
  261. - reduced space usage of chunks.archive.d. Existing caches are migrated during
  262. a cache sync. #235 #2638
  263. - integrity checking using xxh64 for important files used by borg, #1101:
  264. - repository: index and hints files
  265. - cache: chunks and files caches, chunks.archive.d
  266. - improve cache sync speed, #1729
  267. - create: new --no-cache-sync option
  268. - add repository mandatory feature flags infrastructure, #1806
  269. - Verify most operations against SecurityManager. Location, manifest timestamp
  270. and key types are now checked for almost all non-debug commands. #2487
  271. - implement storage quotas, #2517
  272. - serve: add --restrict-to-repository, #2589
  273. - BORG_PASSCOMMAND: use external tool providing the key passphrase, #2573
  274. - borg export-tar, #2519
  275. - list: --json-lines instead of --json for archive contents, #2439
  276. - add --debug-profile option (and also "borg debug convert-profile"), #2473
  277. - implement --glob-archives/-a, #2448
  278. - normalize authenticated key modes for better naming consistency:
  279. - rename "authenticated" to "authenticated-blake2" (uses blake2b)
  280. - implement "authenticated" mode (uses hmac-sha256)
  281. Fixes:
  282. - hashindex: read/write indices >2 GiB on 32bit systems, better error
  283. reporting, #2496
  284. - repository URLs: implement IPv6 address support and also more informative
  285. error message when parsing fails.
  286. - mount: check whether llfuse is installed before asking for passphrase, #2540
  287. - mount: do pre-mount checks before opening repository, #2541
  288. - FUSE:
  289. - fix crash if empty (None) xattr is read, #2534
  290. - fix read(2) caching data in metadata cache
  291. - fix negative uid/gid crash (fix crash when mounting archives
  292. of external drives made on cygwin), #2674
  293. - redo ItemCache, on top of object cache
  294. - use decrypted cache
  295. - remove unnecessary normpaths

  309. - recreate: keep timestamps as in original archive, #2384
  310. - recreate: if single archive is not processed, exit 2
  311. - patterns: don't recurse with ! / --exclude for pf:, #2509
  312. - cache sync: fix n^2 behaviour in lookup_name
  313. - extract: don't write to disk with --stdout (affected non-regular-file items), #2645
  314. - hashindex: implement KeyError, more tests
  315. Other changes:
  316. - remote: show path in PathNotAllowed
  317. - consider repokey w/o passphrase == unencrypted, #2169
  318. - consider authenticated mode == unencrypted, #2503
  319. - restrict key file names, #2560

  595. Version 1.0.10 (2017-02-13)
  596. ---------------------------
  597. Bug fixes:
  598. - Manifest timestamps are now monotonically increasing,
  599. this fixes issues when the system clock jumps backwards
  600. or is set inconsistently across computers accessing the same repository, #2115
  601. - Fixed testing regression in 1.0.10rc1 that lead to a hard dependency on
  602. py.test >= 3.0, #2112
  603. New features:
  604. - "key export" can now generate a printable HTML page with both a QR code and
  605. a human-readable "paperkey" representation (and custom text) through the
  606. ``--qr-html`` option.
  607. The same functionality is also available through `paperkey.html <paperkey.html>`_,
  608. which is the same HTML page generated by ``--qr-html``. It works with existing
  609. "key export" files and key files.
  610. Other changes:
  611. - docs:
  612. - language clarification - "borg create --one-file-system" option does not respect
  613. mount points, but considers different file systems instead, #2141
  614. - setup.py: build_api: sort file list for determinism
  615. Version 1.1.0b3 (2017-01-15)
  616. ----------------------------
  617. Compatibility notes:
  618. - borg init: removed the default of "--encryption/-e", #1979
  619. This was done so users do a informed decision about -e mode.
  620. Bug fixes:
  621. - borg recreate: don't rechunkify unless explicitly told so
  622. - borg info: fixed bug when called without arguments, #1914
  623. - borg init: fix free space check crashing if disk is full, #1821
  624. - borg debug delete/get obj: fix wrong reference to exception
  625. - fix processing of remote ~/ and ~user/ paths (regressed since 1.1.0b1), #1759
  626. - posix platform module: only build / import on non-win32 platforms, #2041
  627. New features:
  628. - new CRC32 implementations that are much faster than the zlib one used previously, #1970
  629. - add blake2b key modes (use blake2b as MAC). This links against system libb2,
  630. if possible, otherwise uses bundled code
  631. - automatically remove stale locks - set BORG_HOSTNAME_IS_UNIQUE env var
  632. to enable stale lock killing. If set, stale locks in both cache and
  633. repository are deleted. #562 #1253
  634. - borg info <repo>: print general repo information, #1680
  635. - borg check --first / --last / --sort / --prefix, #1663
  636. - borg mount --first / --last / --sort / --prefix, #1542
  637. - implement "health" item formatter key, #1749
  638. - BORG_SECURITY_DIR to remember security related infos outside the cache.
  639. Key type, location and manifest timestamp checks now survive cache
  640. deletion. This also means that you can now delete your cache and avoid
  641. previous warnings, since Borg can still tell it's safe.
  642. - implement BORG_NEW_PASSPHRASE, #1768
  643. Other changes:
  644. - borg recreate:
  645. - remove special-cased --dry-run
  646. - update --help
  647. - remove bloat: interruption blah, autocommit blah, resuming blah
  648. - re-use existing checkpoint functionality
  649. - archiver tests: add check_cache tool - lints refcounts
  650. - fixed cache sync performance regression from 1.1.0b1 onwards, #1940
  651. - syncing the cache without chunks.archive.d (see :ref:`disable_archive_chunks`)
  652. now avoids any merges and is thus faster, #1940
  653. - borg check --verify-data: faster due to linear on-disk-order scan
  654. - borg debug-xxx commands removed, we use "debug xxx" subcommands now, #1627
  655. - improve metadata handling speed
  656. - shortcut hashindex_set by having hashindex_lookup hint about address
  657. - improve / add progress displays, #1721
  658. - check for index vs. segment files object count mismatch
  659. - make RPC protocol more extensible: use named parameters.
  660. - RemoteRepository: misc. code cleanups / refactors
  661. - clarify cache/repository README file
  662. - docs:
  663. - quickstart: add a comment about other (remote) filesystems
  664. - quickstart: only give one possible ssh url syntax, all others are
  665. documented in usage chapter.
  666. - mention file://
  667. - document repo URLs / archive location
  668. - clarify borg diff help, #980
  669. - deployment: synthesize alternative --restrict-to-path example
  670. - improve cache / index docs, esp. files cache docs, #1825
  671. - document using "git merge 1.0-maint -s recursive -X rename-threshold=20%"
  672. for avoiding troubles when merging the 1.0-maint branch into master.
  673. - tests:
  674. - FUSE tests: catch ENOTSUP on freebsd
  675. - FUSE tests: test troublesome xattrs last
  676. - fix byte range error in test, #1740
  677. - use monkeypatch to set env vars, but only on pytest based tests.
  678. - point XDG_*_HOME to temp dirs for tests, #1714
  679. - remove all BORG_* env vars from the outer environment

  684. This affects only the cygwin platform (not Linux, BSD, OS X).
  685. - Avoid triggering an ObjectiveFS bug in xattr retrieval, #1992
  686. - When running out of buffer memory when reading xattrs, only skip the
  687. current file, #1993
  688. - Fixed "borg upgrade --tam" crashing with unencrypted repositories. Since
  689. :ref:`the issue <tam_vuln>` is not relevant for unencrypted repositories,
  690. it now does nothing and prints an error, #1981.
  691. - Fixed change-passphrase crashing with unencrypted repositories, #1978
  692. - Fixed "borg check repo::archive" indicating success if "archive" does not exist, #1997

  701. - binary: use fixed AND freshly compiled pyinstaller bootloader, #2002
  702. - xattr: ignore empty names returned by llistxattr(2) et al
  703. - Enable the fault handler: install handlers for the SIGSEGV, SIGFPE, SIGABRT,
  704. SIGBUS and SIGILL signals to dump the Python traceback.
  705. - Also print a traceback on SIGUSR2.
  706. - borg change-passphrase: print key location (simplify making a backup of it)

  737. Version 1.0.9 (2016-12-20)
  738. --------------------------
  739. Security fixes:
  740. - A flaw in the cryptographic authentication scheme in Borg allowed an attacker
  741. to spoof the manifest. See :ref:`tam_vuln` above for the steps you should
  742. take.
  743. CVE-2016-10099 was assigned to this vulnerability.
  744. - borg check: When rebuilding the manifest (which should only be needed very rarely)
  745. duplicate archive names would be handled on a "first come first serve" basis, allowing
  746. an attacker to apparently replace archives.
  747. CVE-2016-10100 was assigned to this vulnerability.
  748. Bug fixes:
  749. - borg check:

  770. -----------------------------
  771. Bug fixes:
  772. - files cache: fix determination of newest mtime in backup set (which is
  773. used in cache cleanup and led to wrong "A" [added] status for unchanged
  774. files in next backup), #1860.
  775. - borg check:
  776. - fix incorrectly reporting attic 0.13 and earlier archives as corrupt
  777. - handle repo w/o objects gracefully and also bail out early if repo is
  778. *completely* empty, #1815.
  779. - fix tox/pybuild in 1.0-maint
  780. - at xattr module import time, loggers are not initialized yet
  781. New features:
  782. - borg umount <mountpoint>
  783. exposed already existing umount code via the CLI api, so users can use it,
  784. which is more consistent than using borg to mount and fusermount -u (or
  785. umount) to un-mount, #1855.
  786. - implement borg create --noatime --noctime, fixes #1853
  787. Other changes:

  816. ----------------------------
  817. Bug fixes:
  818. - fix incorrect preservation of delete tags, leading to "object count mismatch"
  819. on borg check, #1598. This only occurred with 1.1.0b1 (not with 1.0.x) and is

  830. "repaired" immediately and maybe healed later.
  831. - archives filters concept (refactoring/unifying older code)
  832. - covers --first/--last/--prefix/--sort-by options
  833. - currently used for borg list/info/delete
  834. Other changes:
  835. - borg check --verify-data slightly tuned (use get_many())
  836. - change {utcnow} and {now} to ISO-8601 format ("T" date/time separator)
  837. - repo check: log transaction IDs, improve object count mismatch diagnostic
  838. - Vagrantfile: use TW's fresh-bootloader pyinstaller branch

  851. - borg diff: show differences between archives
  852. - borg with-lock: execute a command with the repository locked, #990
  853. - borg create:
  854. - Flexible compression with pattern matching on path/filename,
  855. and LZ4 heuristic for deciding compressibility, #810, #1007

  861. - Linux: added support for some BSD flags, #1050
  862. - add 'x' status for excluded paths, #814
  863. - also means files excluded via UF_NODUMP, #1080

  878. reverse time order. rephrase and reorder help text.
  879. - implement --keep-last N via --keep-secondly N, also --keep-minutely.
  880. assuming that there is not more than 1 backup archive made in 1s,

  883. - borg extract:
  884. - added --progress, #1449

  888. - borg mount:
  889. - provide "borgfs" wrapper for borg mount, enables usage via fstab, #743
  890. - "versions" mount option - when used with a repository mount, this gives

  955. Other changes:
  956. - avoid previous_location mismatch, #1741
  957. due to the changed canonicalization for relative paths in PR #1711 / #1655
  958. (implement /./ relpath hack), there would be a changed repo location warning
  959. and the user would be asked if this is ok. this would break automation and
  960. require manual intervention, which is unwanted.
  961. thus, we automatically fix the previous_location config entry, if it only
  962. changed in the expected way, but still means the same location.
  963. - docs:
  964. - deployment.rst: do not use bare variables in ansible snippet

  975. Version 1.0.8rc1 (2016-10-17)
  976. -----------------------------
  977. Bug fixes:
  978. - fix signal handling (SIGINT, SIGTERM, SIGHUP), #1620 #1593
  979. Fixes e.g. leftover lock files for quickly repeated signals (e.g. Ctrl-C
  980. Ctrl-C) or lost connections or systemd sending SIGHUP.
  981. - progress display: adapt formatting to narrow screens, do not crash, #1628
  982. - borg create --read-special - fix crash on broken symlink, #1584.
  983. also correctly processes broken symlinks. before this regressed to a crash
  984. (5b45385) a broken symlink would've been skipped.
  985. - process_symlink: fix missing backup_io()
  986. Fixes a chmod/chown/chgrp/unlink/rename/... crash race between getting
  987. dirents and dispatching to process_symlink.
  988. - yes(): abort on wrong answers, saying so, #1622
  989. - fixed exception borg serve raised when connection was closed before reposiory
  990. was openend. add an error message for this.
  991. - fix read-from-closed-FD issue, #1551
  992. (this seems not to get triggered in 1.0.x, but was discovered in master)
  993. - hashindex: fix iterators (always raise StopIteration when exhausted)
  994. (this seems not to get triggered in 1.0.x, but was discovered in master)
  995. - enable relative paths in ssh:// repo URLs, via /./relpath hack, #1655
  996. - allow repo paths with colons, #1705
  997. - update changed repo location immediately after acceptance, #1524
  998. - fix debug get-obj / delete-obj crash if object not found and remote repo,
  999. #1684
  1000. - pyinstaller: use a spec file to build borg.exe binary, exclude osxfuse dylib
  1001. on Mac OS X (avoids mismatch lib <-> driver), #1619
  1002. New features:
  1003. - add "borg key export" / "borg key import" commands, #1555, so users are able
  1004. to backup / restore their encryption keys more easily.
  1005. Supported formats are the keyfile format used by borg internally and a
  1006. special "paper" format with by line checksums for printed backups. For the
  1007. paper format, the import is an interactive process which checks each line as
  1008. soon as it is input.
  1009. - add "borg debug-refcount-obj" to determine a repo objects' referrer counts,
  1010. #1352
  1011. Other changes:
  1012. - add "borg debug ..." subcommands
  1013. (borg debug-* still works, but will be removed in borg 1.1)
  1014. - setup.py: Add subcommand support to build_usage.
  1015. - remote: change exception message for unexpected RPC data format to indicate
  1016. dataflow direction.
  1017. - improved messages / error reporting:
  1018. - IntegrityError: add placeholder for message, so that the message we give
  1019. appears not only in the traceback, but also in the (short) error message,
  1020. #1572
  1021. - borg.key: include chunk id in exception msgs, #1571
  1022. - better messages for cache newer than repo, #1700
  1023. - vagrant (testing/build VMs):
  1024. - upgrade OSXfuse / FUSE for macOS to 3.5.2
  1025. - update Debian Wheezy boxes, #1686
  1026. - openbsd / netbsd: use own boxes, fixes misc rsync installation and
  1027. FUSE/llfuse related testing issues, #1695 #1696 #1670 #1671 #1728
  1028. - docs:
  1029. - add docs for "key export" and "key import" commands, #1641

  1043. - add more specific warning about write-access debug commands, #1587
  1044. - clarify FAQ regarding backup of virtual machines, #1672
  1045. - tests:
  1046. - work around FUSE xattr test issue with recent fakeroot
  1047. - simplify repo/hashindex tests
  1048. - travis: test FUSE-enabled borg, use trusty to have a recent FUSE
  1049. - re-enable FUSE tests for RemoteArchiver (no deadlocks any more)
  1050. - clean env for pytest based tests, #1714
  1051. - fuse_mount contextmanager: accept any options
  1052. Version 1.0.7 (2016-08-19)
  1053. --------------------------
  1054. Security fixes:
  1055. - borg serve: fix security issue with remote repository access, #1428
  1056. If you used e.g. --restrict-to-path /path/client1/ (with or without trailing
  1057. slash does not make a difference), it acted like a path prefix match using
  1058. /path/client1 (note the missing trailing slash) - the code then also allowed
  1059. working in e.g. /path/client13 or /path/client1000.
  1060. As this could accidentally lead to major security/privacy issues depending on
  1061. the paths you use, the behaviour was changed to be a strict directory match.
  1062. That means --restrict-to-path /path/client1 (with or without trailing slash
  1063. does not make a difference) now uses /path/client1/ internally (note the
  1064. trailing slash here!) for matching and allows precisely that path AND any
  1065. path below it. So, /path/client1 is allowed, /path/client1/repo1 is allowed,
  1066. but not /path/client13 or /path/client1000.
  1067. If you willingly used the undocumented (dangerous) previous behaviour, you
  1068. may need to rearrange your --restrict-to-path paths now. We are sorry if
  1069. that causes work for you, but we did not want a potentially dangerous
  1070. behaviour in the software (not even using a for-backwards-compat option).
  1071. Bug fixes:
  1072. - fixed repeated LockTimeout exceptions when borg serve tried to write into
  1073. a already write-locked repo (e.g. by a borg mount), #502 part b)
  1074. This was solved by the fix for #1220 in 1.0.7rc1 already.
  1075. - fix cosmetics + file leftover for "not a valid borg repository", #1490
  1076. - Cache: release lock if cache is invalid, #1501
  1077. - borg extract --strip-components: fix leak of preloaded chunk contents
  1078. - Repository, when a InvalidRepository exception happens:
  1079. - fix spurious, empty lock.roster
  1080. - fix repo not closed cleanly
  1081. New features:
  1082. - implement borg debug-info, fixes #1122
  1083. (just calls already existing code via cli, same output as below tracebacks)
  1084. Other changes:
  1085. - skip the O_NOATIME test on GNU Hurd, fixes #1315
  1086. (this is a very minor issue and the GNU Hurd project knows the bug)
  1087. - document using a clean repo to test / build the release
  1088. Version 1.0.7rc2 (2016-08-13)
  1089. -----------------------------
  1090. Bug fixes:
  1091. - do not write objects to repository that are bigger than the allowed size,
  1092. borg will reject reading them, #1451.
  1093. Important: if you created archives with many millions of files or
  1094. directories, please verify if you can open them successfully,
  1095. e.g. try a "borg list REPO::ARCHIVE".
  1096. - lz4 compression: dynamically enlarge the (de)compression buffer, the static
  1097. buffer was not big enough for archives with extremely many items, #1453
  1098. - larger item metadata stream chunks, raise archive item limit by 8x, #1452
  1099. - fix untracked segments made by moved DELETEs, #1442
  1100. Impact: Previously (metadata) segments could become untracked when deleting data,
  1101. these would never be cleaned up.
  1102. - extended attributes (xattrs) related fixes:
  1103. - fixed a race condition in xattrs querying that led to the entire file not
  1104. being backed up (while logging the error, exit code = 1), #1469
  1105. - fixed a race condition in xattrs querying that led to a crash, #1462
  1106. - raise OSError including the error message derived from errno, deal with
  1107. path being a integer FD
  1108. Other changes:
  1109. - print active env var override by default, #1467
  1110. - xattr module: refactor code, deduplicate, clean up
  1111. - repository: split object size check into too small and too big
  1112. - add a transaction_id assertion, so borg init on a broken (inconsistent)
  1113. filesystem does not look like a coding error in borg, but points to the
  1114. real problem.
  1115. - explain confusing TypeError caused by compat support for old servers, #1456
  1116. - add forgotten usage help file from build_usage
  1117. - refactor/unify buffer code into helpers.Buffer class, add tests
  1118. - docs:
  1119. - document archive limitation, #1452
  1120. - improve prune examples
  1121. Version 1.0.7rc1 (2016-08-05)
  1122. -----------------------------
  1123. Bug fixes:
  1124. - fix repo lock deadlocks (related to lock upgrade), #1220
  1125. - catch unpacker exceptions, resync, #1351
  1126. - fix borg break-lock ignoring BORG_REPO env var, #1324
  1127. - files cache performance fixes (fixes unnecessary re-reading/chunking/
  1128. hashing of unmodified files for some use cases):
  1129. - fix unintended file cache eviction, #1430
  1130. - implement BORG_FILES_CACHE_TTL, update FAQ, raise default TTL from 10
  1131. to 20, #1338
  1132. - FUSE:
  1133. - cache partially read data chunks (performance), #965, #966
  1134. - always create a root dir, #1125
  1135. - use an OrderedDict for helptext, making the build reproducible, #1346
  1136. - RemoteRepository init: always call close on exceptions, #1370 (cosmetic)
  1137. - ignore stdout/stderr broken pipe errors (cosmetic), #1116
  1138. New features:
  1139. - better borg versions management support (useful esp. for borg servers
  1140. wanting to offer multiple borg versions and for clients wanting to choose
  1141. a specific server borg version), #1392:
  1142. - add BORG_VERSION environment variable before executing "borg serve" via ssh
  1143. - add new placeholder {borgversion}
  1144. - substitute placeholders in --remote-path
  1145. - borg init --append-only option (makes using the more secure append-only mode
  1146. more convenient. when used remotely, this requires 1.0.7+ also on the borg
  1147. server), #1291.
  1148. Other changes:
  1149. - Vagrantfile:
  1150. - darwin64: upgrade to FUSE for macOS 3.4.1 (aka osxfuse), #1378
  1151. - xenial64: use user "ubuntu", not "vagrant" (as usual), #1331
  1152. - tests:
  1153. - fix FUSE tests on OS X, #1433
  1154. - docs:
  1155. - FAQ: add backup using stable filesystem names recommendation
  1156. - FAQ about glibc compatibility added, #491, glibc-check improved
  1157. - FAQ: 'A' unchanged file; remove ambiguous entry age sentence.
  1158. - OS X: install pkg-config to build with FUSE support, fixes #1400
  1159. - add notes about shell/sudo pitfalls with env. vars, #1380
  1160. - added platform feature matrix
  1161. - implement borg debug-dump-repo-objs
  1162. Version 1.0.6 (2016-07-12)
  1163. --------------------------
  1164. Bug fixes:
  1165. - Linux: handle multiple LD_PRELOAD entries correctly, #1314, #1111
  1166. - Fix crash with unclear message if the libc is not found, #1314, #1111
  1167. Other changes:
  1168. - tests:
  1169. - Fixed O_NOATIME tests for Solaris and GNU Hurd, #1315
  1170. - Fixed sparse file tests for (file) systems not supporting it, #1310
  1171. - docs:
  1172. - Fixed syntax highlighting, #1313
  1173. - misc docs: added data processing overview picture
  1174. Version 1.0.6rc1 (2016-07-10)
  1175. -----------------------------
  1176. New features:
  1177. - borg check --repair: heal damaged files if missing chunks re-appear (e.g. if
  1178. the previously missing chunk was added again in a later backup archive),
  1179. #148. (*) Also improved logging.
  1180. Bug fixes:
  1181. - sync_dir: silence fsync() failing with EINVAL, #1287
  1182. Some network filesystems (like smbfs) don't support this and we use this in
  1183. repository code.
  1184. - borg mount (FUSE):
  1185. - fix directories being shadowed when contained paths were also specified,
  1186. #1295
  1187. - raise I/O Error (EIO) on damaged files (unless -o allow_damaged_files is
  1188. used), #1302. (*)
  1189. - borg extract: warn if a damaged file is extracted, #1299. (*)
  1190. - Added some missing return code checks (ChunkIndex._add, hashindex_resize).
  1191. - borg check: fix/optimize initial hash table size, avoids resize of the table.
  1192. Other changes:
  1193. - tests:
  1194. - add more FUSE tests, #1284
  1195. - deduplicate FUSE (u)mount code
  1196. - fix borg binary test issues, #862
  1197. - docs:
  1198. - changelog: added release dates to older borg releases
  1199. - fix some sphinx (docs generator) warnings, #881
  1200. Notes:
  1201. (*) Some features depend on information (chunks_healthy list) added to item
  1202. metadata when a file with missing chunks was "repaired" using all-zero
  1203. replacement chunks. The chunks_healthy list is generated since borg 1.0.4,
  1204. thus borg can't recognize such "repaired" (but content-damaged) files if the
  1205. repair was done with an older borg version.
  1206. Version 1.0.5 (2016-07-07)
  1207. --------------------------
  1208. Bug fixes:
  1209. - borg mount: fix FUSE crash in xattr code on Linux introduced in 1.0.4, #1282
  1210. Other changes:
  1211. - backport some FAQ entries from master branch
  1212. - add release helper scripts
  1213. - Vagrantfile:
  1214. - centos6: no FUSE, don't build binary
  1215. - add xz for redhat-like dists
  1216. Version 1.0.4 (2016-07-07)
  1217. --------------------------
  1218. New features:
  1219. - borg serve --append-only, #1168
  1220. This was included because it was a simple change (append-only functionality
  1221. was already present via repository config file) and makes better security now
  1222. practically usable.
  1223. - BORG_REMOTE_PATH environment variable, #1258
  1224. This was included because it was a simple change (--remote-path cli option
  1225. was already present) and makes borg much easier to use if you need it.
  1226. - Repository: cleanup incomplete transaction on "no space left" condition.
  1227. In many cases, this can avoid a 100% full repo filesystem (which is very
  1228. problematic as borg always needs free space - even to delete archives).
  1229. Bug fixes:
  1230. - Fix wrong handling and reporting of OSErrors in borg create, #1138.
  1231. This was a serious issue: in the context of "borg create", errors like
  1232. repository I/O errors (e.g. disk I/O errors, ssh repo connection errors)
  1233. were handled badly and did not lead to a crash (which would be good for this
  1234. case, because the repo transaction would be incomplete and trigger a
  1235. transaction rollback to clean up).
  1236. Now, error handling for source files is cleanly separated from every other
  1237. error handling, so only problematic input files are logged and skipped.
  1238. - Implement fail-safe error handling for borg extract.
  1239. Note that this isn't nearly as critical as the borg create error handling
  1240. bug, since nothing is written to the repo. So this was "merely" misleading
  1241. error reporting.
  1242. - Add missing error handler in directory attr restore loop.
  1243. - repo: make sure write data hits disk before the commit tag (#1236) and also
  1244. sync the containing directory.
  1245. - FUSE: getxattr fail must use errno.ENOATTR, #1126
  1246. (fixes Mac OS X Finder malfunction: "zero bytes" file length, access denied)
  1247. - borg check --repair: do not lose information about the good/original chunks.
  1248. If we do not lose the original chunk IDs list when "repairing" a file
  1249. (replacing missing chunks with all-zero chunks), we have a chance to "heal"
  1250. the file back into its original state later, in case the chunks re-appear
  1251. (e.g. in a fresh backup). Healing is not implemented yet, see #148.
  1252. - fixes for --read-special mode:
  1253. - ignore known files cache, #1241
  1254. - fake regular file mode, #1214
  1255. - improve symlinks handling, #1215
  1256. - remove passphrase from subprocess environment, #1105
  1257. - Ignore empty index file (will trigger index rebuild), #1195
  1258. - add missing placeholder support for --prefix, #1027
  1259. - improve exception handling for placeholder replacement
  1260. - catch and format exceptions in arg parsing
  1261. - helpers: fix "undefined name 'e'" in exception handler
  1262. - better error handling for missing repo manifest, #1043
  1263. - borg delete:
  1264. - make it possible to delete a repo without manifest
  1265. - borg delete --forced allows to delete corrupted archives, #1139
  1266. - borg check:
  1267. - make borg check work for empty repo
  1268. - fix resync and msgpacked item qualifier, #1135
  1269. - rebuild_manifest: fix crash if 'name' or 'time' key were missing.
  1270. - better validation of item metadata dicts, #1130
  1271. - better validation of archive metadata dicts
  1272. - close the repo on exit - even if rollback did not work, #1197.
  1273. This is rather cosmetic, it avoids repo closing in the destructor.
  1274. - tests:
  1275. - fix sparse file test, #1170
  1276. - flake8: ignore new F405, #1185
  1277. - catch "invalid argument" on cygwin, #257
  1278. - fix sparseness assertion in test prep, #1264
  1279. Other changes:
  1280. - make borg build/work on OpenSSL 1.0 and 1.1, #1187
  1281. - docs / help:
  1282. - fix / clarify prune help, #1143
  1283. - fix "patterns" help formatting
  1284. - add missing docs / help about placeholders
  1285. - resources: rename atticmatic to borgmatic
  1286. - document sshd settings, #545
  1287. - more details about checkpoints, add split trick, #1171
  1288. - support docs: add freenode web chat link, #1175
  1289. - add prune visualization / example, #723
  1290. - add note that Fnmatch is default, #1247
  1291. - make clear that lzma levels > 6 are a waste of cpu cycles
  1292. - add a "do not edit" note to auto-generated files, #1250
  1293. - update cygwin installation docs
  1294. - repository interoperability with borg master (1.1dev) branch:
  1295. - borg check: read item metadata keys from manifest, #1147
  1296. - read v2 hints files, #1235
  1297. - fix hints file "unknown version" error handling bug
  1298. - tests: add tests for format_line
  1299. - llfuse: update version requirement for freebsd
  1300. - Vagrantfile:
  1301. - use openbsd 5.9, #716
  1302. - do not install llfuse on netbsd (broken)
  1303. - update OSXfuse to version 3.3.3
  1304. - use Python 3.5.2 to build the binaries
  1305. - glibc compatibility checker: scripts/glibc_check.py
  1306. - add .eggs to .gitignore
  1307. Version 1.0.3 (2016-05-20)
  1308. --------------------------
  1309. Bug fixes:
  1310. - prune: avoid that checkpoints are kept and completed archives are deleted in
  1311. a prune run), #997
  1312. - prune: fix commandline argument validation - some valid command lines were
  1313. considered invalid (annoying, but harmless), #942
  1314. - fix capabilities extraction on Linux (set xattrs last, after chown()), #1069
  1315. - repository: fix commit tags being seen in data
  1316. - when probing key files, do binary reads. avoids crash when non-borg binary
  1317. files are located in borg's key files directory.
  1318. - handle SIGTERM and make a clean exit - avoids orphan lock files.
  1319. - repository cache: don't cache large objects (avoid using lots of temp. disk
  1320. space), #1063
  1321. Other changes:
  1322. - Vagrantfile: OS X: update osxfuse / install lzma package, #933
  1323. - setup.py: add check for platform_darwin.c
  1324. - setup.py: on freebsd, use a llfuse release that builds ok
  1325. - docs / help:
  1326. - update readthedocs URLs, #991
  1327. - add missing docs for "borg break-lock", #992
  1328. - borg create help: add some words to about the archive name
  1329. - borg create help: document format tags, #894
  1330. Version 1.0.2 (2016-04-16)
  1331. --------------------------
  1332. Bug fixes:
  1333. - fix malfunction and potential corruption on (nowadays rather rare) big-endian
  1334. architectures or bi-endian archs in (rare) BE mode. #886, #889
  1335. cache resync / index merge was malfunctioning due to this, potentially
  1336. leading to data loss. borg info had cosmetic issues (displayed wrong values).
  1337. note: all (widespread) little-endian archs (like x86/x64) or bi-endian archs
  1338. in (widespread) LE mode (like ARMEL, MIPSEL, ...) were NOT affected.
  1339. - add overflow and range checks for 1st (special) uint32 of the hashindex
  1340. values, switch from int32 to uint32.
  1341. - fix so that refcount will never overflow, but just stick to max. value after
  1342. a overflow would have occurred.
  1343. - borg delete: fix --cache-only for broken caches, #874
  1344. Makes --cache-only idempotent: it won't fail if the cache is already deleted.
  1345. - fixed borg create --one-file-system erroneously traversing into other
  1346. filesystems (if starting fs device number was 0), #873
  1347. - workround a bug in Linux fadvise FADV_DONTNEED, #907
  1348. Other changes:
  1349. - better test coverage for hashindex, incl. overflow testing, checking correct
  1350. computations so endianness issues would be discovered.
  1351. - reproducible doc for ProgressIndicator*, make the build reproducible.
  1352. - use latest llfuse for vagrant machines
  1353. - docs:
  1354. - use /path/to/repo in examples, fixes #901
  1355. - fix confusing usage of "repo" as archive name (use "arch")
  1356. Version 1.0.1 (2016-04-08)
  1357. --------------------------
  1358. New features:
  1359. Usually there are no new features in a bugfix release, but these were added
  1360. due to their high impact on security/safety/speed or because they are fixes
  1361. also:
  1362. - append-only mode for repositories, #809, #36 (see docs)
  1363. - borg create: add --ignore-inode option to make borg detect unmodified files
  1364. even if your filesystem does not have stable inode numbers (like sshfs and
  1365. possibly CIFS).
  1366. - add options --warning, --error, --critical for missing log levels, #826.
  1367. it's not recommended to suppress warnings or errors, but the user may decide
  1368. this on his own.
  1369. note: --warning is not given to borg serve so a <= 1.0.0 borg will still
  1370. work as server (it is not needed as it is the default).
  1371. do not use --error or --critical when using a <= 1.0.0 borg server.
  1372. Bug fixes:
  1373. - fix silently skipping EIO, #748
  1374. - add context manager for Repository (avoid orphan repository locks), #285
  1375. - do not sleep for >60s while waiting for lock, #773
  1376. - unpack file stats before passing to FUSE
  1377. - fix build on illumos
  1378. - don't try to backup doors or event ports (Solaris and derivates)
  1379. - remove useless/misleading libc version display, #738
  1380. - test suite: reset exit code of persistent archiver, #844
  1381. - RemoteRepository: clean up pipe if remote open() fails
  1382. - Remote: don't print tracebacks for Error exceptions handled downstream, #792
  1383. - if BORG_PASSPHRASE is present but wrong, don't prompt for password, but fail
  1384. instead, #791
  1385. - ArchiveChecker: move "orphaned objects check skipped" to INFO log level, #826
  1386. - fix capitalization, add ellipses, change log level to debug for 2 messages,
  1387. #798
  1388. Other changes:
  1389. - update llfuse requirement, llfuse 1.0 works
  1390. - update OS / dist packages on build machines, #717
  1391. - prefer showing --info over -v in usage help, #859
  1392. - docs:
  1393. - fix cygwin requirements (gcc-g++)
  1394. - document how to debug / file filesystem issues, #664
  1395. - fix reproducible build of api docs
  1396. - RTD theme: CSS !important overwrite, #727
  1397. - Document logo font. Recreate logo png. Remove GIMP logo file.
  1398. Version 1.0.0 (2016-03-05)
  1399. --------------------------
  1400. The major release number change (0.x -> 1.x) indicates bigger incompatible
  1401. changes, please read the compatibility notes, adapt / test your scripts and
  1402. check your backup logs.
  1403. Compatibility notes:
  1404. - drop support for python 3.2 and 3.3, require 3.4 or 3.5, #221 #65 #490
  1405. note: we provide binaries that include python 3.5.1 and everything else
  1406. needed. they are an option in case you are stuck with < 3.4 otherwise.
  1407. - change encryption to be on by default (using "repokey" mode)
  1408. - moved keyfile keys from ~/.borg/keys to ~/.config/borg/keys,
  1409. you can either move them manually or run "borg upgrade <REPO>"
  1410. - remove support for --encryption=passphrase,
  1411. use borg migrate-to-repokey to switch to repokey mode, #97
  1412. - remove deprecated --compression <number>,
  1413. use --compression zlib,<number> instead
  1414. in case of 0, you could also use --compression none
  1415. - remove deprecated --hourly/daily/weekly/monthly/yearly
  1416. use --keep-hourly/daily/weekly/monthly/yearly instead
  1417. - remove deprecated --do-not-cross-mountpoints,
  1418. use --one-file-system instead
  1419. - disambiguate -p option, #563:
  1420. - -p now is same as --progress
  1421. - -P now is same as --prefix
  1422. - remove deprecated "borg verify",
  1423. use "borg extract --dry-run" instead
  1424. - cleanup environment variable semantics, #355
  1425. the environment variables used to be "yes sayers" when set, this was
  1426. conceptually generalized to "automatic answerers" and they just give their
  1427. value as answer (as if you typed in that value when being asked).
  1428. See the "usage" / "Environment Variables" section of the docs for details.
  1429. - change the builtin default for --chunker-params, create 2MiB chunks, #343
  1430. --chunker-params new default: 19,23,21,4095 - old default: 10,23,16,4095
  1431. one of the biggest issues with borg < 1.0 (and also attic) was that it had a
  1432. default target chunk size of 64kiB, thus it created a lot of chunks and thus
  1433. also a huge chunk management overhead (high RAM and disk usage).
  1434. please note that the new default won't change the chunks that you already
  1435. have in your repository. the new big chunks do not deduplicate with the old
  1436. small chunks, so expect your repo to grow at least by the size of every
  1437. changed file and in the worst case (e.g. if your files cache was lost / is
  1438. not used) by the size of every file (minus any compression you might use).
  1439. in case you want to immediately see a much lower resource usage (RAM / disk)
  1440. for chunks management, it might be better to start with a new repo than
  1441. continuing in the existing repo (with an existing repo, you'ld have to wait
  1442. until all archives with small chunks got pruned to see a lower resource
  1443. usage).
  1444. if you used the old --chunker-params default value (or if you did not use
  1445. --chunker-params option at all) and you'ld like to continue using small
  1446. chunks (and you accept the huge resource usage that comes with that), just
  1447. explicitly use borg create --chunker-params=10,23,16,4095.
  1448. - archive timestamps: the 'time' timestamp now refers to archive creation
  1449. start time (was: end time), the new 'time_end' timestamp refers to archive
  1450. creation end time. This might affect prune if your backups take rather long.
  1451. if you give a timestamp via cli this is stored into 'time', therefore it now
  1452. needs to mean archive creation start time.
  1453. New features:
  1454. - implement password roundtrip, #695
  1455. Bug fixes:
  1456. - remote end does not need cache nor keys directories, do not create them, #701
  1457. - added retry counter for passwords, #703
  1458. Other changes:
  1459. - fix compiler warnings, #697
  1460. - docs:
  1461. - update README.rst to new changelog location in docs/changes.rst
  1462. - add Teemu to AUTHORS
  1463. - changes.rst: fix old chunker params, #698
  1464. - FAQ: how to limit bandwidth

  1468. - format options for location: user, pid, fqdn, hostname, now, utcnow, user
  1469. - borg list --list-format
  1470. - borg prune -v --list enables the keep/prune list output, #658
  1471. Bug fixes:
  1472. - fix _open_rb noatime handling, #657
  1473. - add a simple archivename validator, #680
  1474. - borg create --stats: show timestamps in localtime, use same labels/formatting
  1475. as borg info, #651
  1476. - llfuse compatibility fixes (now compatible with: 0.40, 0.41, 0.42)
  1477. Other changes:
  1478. - it is now possible to use "pip install borgbackup[fuse]" to automatically
  1479. install the llfuse dependency using the correct version requirement
  1480. for it. you still need to care about having installed the FUSE / build
  1481. related OS package first, though, so that building llfuse can succeed.
  1482. - Vagrant: drop Ubuntu Precise (12.04) - does not have Python >= 3.4
  1483. - Vagrant: use pyinstaller v3.1.1 to build binaries
  1484. - docs:
  1485. - borg upgrade: add to docs that only LOCAL repos are supported
  1486. - borg upgrade also handles borg 0.xx -> 1.0
  1487. - use pip extras or requirements file to install llfuse
  1488. - fix order in release process
  1489. - updated usage docs and other minor / cosmetic fixes

  1496. - added example to BORG_RSH docs
  1497. - "connection closed by remote": add FAQ entry and point to issue #636

  1501. - borg migrate-to-repokey ("passphrase" -> "repokey" encryption key mode)
  1502. - implement --short for borg list REPO, #611
  1503. - implement --list for borg extract (consistency with borg create)
  1504. - borg serve: overwrite client's --restrict-to-path with ssh forced command's
  1505. option value (but keep everything else from the client commandline), #544

  1515. missing stuff in py 3.2/3.3, simplify code that can be done simpler in 3.4
  1516. - removed some version requirements that were kept on old versions because
  1517. newer did not support py 3.2 any more
  1518. - use some py 3.4+ stdlib code instead of own/openssl/pypi code:
  1519. - use os.urandom instead of own cython openssl RAND_bytes wrapper, #493
  1520. - use hashlib.pbkdf2_hmac from py stdlib instead of own openssl wrapper
  1521. - use hmac.compare_digest instead of == operator (constant time comparison)
  1522. - use stat.filemode instead of homegrown code
  1523. - use "mock" library from stdlib, #145

  1536. - misc. updates and fixes
  1537. Version 0.30.0 (2016-01-23)
  1538. ---------------------------
  1539. Compatibility notes:
  1540. - you may need to use -v (or --info) more often to actually see output emitted
  1541. at INFO log level (because it is suppressed at the default WARNING log level).
  1542. See the "general" section in the usage docs.
  1543. - for borg create, you need --list (additionally to -v) to see the long file
  1544. list (was needed so you can have e.g. --stats alone without the long list)
  1545. - see below about BORG_DELETE_I_KNOW_WHAT_I_AM_DOING (was:
  1546. BORG_CHECK_I_KNOW_WHAT_I_AM_DOING)
  1547. Bug fixes:
  1548. - fix crash when using borg create --dry-run --keep-tag-files, #570

  1552. - log stats consistently, #526
  1553. - add abbreviated weekday to timestamp format, fixes #496

  1558. - added BORG_DELETE_I_KNOW_WHAT_I_AM_DOING for check in "borg delete", #503
  1559. - remove unused "repair" rpc method name
  1560. New features:
  1561. - borg create: implement exclusions using regular expression patterns.
  1562. - borg create: implement inclusions using patterns.
  1563. - borg extract: support patterns, #361
  1564. - support different styles for patterns:
  1565. - fnmatch (`fm:` prefix, default when omitted), like borg <= 0.29.
  1566. - shell (`sh:` prefix) with `*` not matching directory separators and
  1567. `**/` matching 0..n directories
  1568. - path prefix (`pp:` prefix, for unifying borg create pp1 pp2 into the
  1569. patterns system), semantics like in borg <= 0.29
  1570. - regular expression (`re:`), new!
  1571. - --progress option for borg upgrade (#291) and borg delete <archive>
  1572. - update progress indication more often (e.g. for borg create within big
  1573. files or for borg check repo), #500
  1574. - finer chunker granularity for items metadata stream, #547, #487
  1575. - borg create --list now used (additionally to -v) to enable the verbose
  1576. file list output
  1577. - display borg version below tracebacks, #532
  1578. Other changes:
  1579. - hashtable size (and thus: RAM and disk consumption) follows a growth policy:
  1580. grows fast while small, grows slower when getting bigger, #527
  1581. - Vagrantfile: use pyinstaller 3.1 to build binaries, freebsd sqlite3 fix,
  1582. fixes #569
  1583. - no separate binaries for centos6 any more because the generic linux binaries
  1584. also work on centos6 (or in general: on systems with a slightly older glibc
  1585. than debian7
  1586. - dev environment: require virtualenv<14.0 so we get a py32 compatible pip
  1587. - docs:
  1588. - add space-saving chunks.archive.d trick to FAQ
  1589. - important: clarify -v and log levels in usage -> general, please read!

  1598. - rephrase the mailing list section
  1599. - development docs: run build_api and build_usage before tagging release
  1600. - internals docs: hash table max. load factor is 0.75 now
  1601. - markup, typo, grammar, phrasing, clarifications and other fixes.
  1602. - add gcc gcc-c++ to redhat/fedora/corora install docs, fixes #583
  1603. Version 0.29.0 (2015-12-13)
  1604. ---------------------------
  1605. Compatibility notes:
  1606. - when upgrading to 0.29.0 you need to upgrade client as well as server
  1607. installations due to the locking and commandline interface changes otherwise
  1608. you'll get an error msg about a RPC protocol mismatch or a wrong commandline
  1609. option.
  1610. if you run a server that needs to support both old and new clients, it is
  1611. suggested that you have a "borg-0.28.2" and a "borg-0.29.0" command.
  1612. clients then can choose via e.g. "borg --remote-path=borg-0.29.0 ...".
  1613. - the default waiting time for a lock changed from infinity to 1 second for a
  1614. better interactive user experience. if the repo you want to access is
  1615. currently locked, borg will now terminate after 1s with an error message.
  1616. if you have scripts that shall wait for the lock for a longer time, use
  1617. --lock-wait N (with N being the maximum wait time in seconds).
  1618. Bug fixes:
  1619. - hash table tuning (better chosen hashtable load factor 0.75 and prime initial
  1620. size of 1031 gave ~1000x speedup in some scenarios)
  1621. - avoid creation of an orphan lock for one case, #285
  1622. - --keep-tag-files: fix file mode and multiple tag files in one directory, #432
  1623. - fixes for "borg upgrade" (attic repo converter), #466
  1624. - remove --progress isatty magic (and also --no-progress option) again, #476
  1625. - borg init: display proper repo URL
  1626. - fix format of umask in help pages, #463
  1627. New features:
  1628. - implement --lock-wait, support timeout for UpgradableLock, #210
  1629. - implement borg break-lock command, #157
  1630. - include system info below traceback, #324
  1631. - sane remote logging, remote stderr, #461:
  1632. - remote log output: intercept it and log it via local logging system,
  1633. with "Remote: " prefixed to message. log remote tracebacks.
  1634. - remote stderr: output it to local stderr with "Remote: " prefixed.
  1635. - add --debug and --info (same as --verbose) to set the log level of the
  1636. builtin logging configuration (which otherwise defaults to warning), #426
  1637. note: there are few messages emitted at DEBUG level currently.
  1638. - optionally configure logging via env var BORG_LOGGING_CONF
  1639. - add --filter option for status characters: e.g. to show only the added
  1640. or modified files (and also errors), use "borg create -v --filter=AME ...".
  1641. - more progress indicators, #394
  1642. - use ISO-8601 date and time format, #375
  1643. - "borg check --prefix" to restrict archive checking to that name prefix, #206
  1644. Other changes:
  1645. - hashindex_add C implementation (speed up cache re-sync for new archives)
  1646. - increase FUSE read_size to 1024 (speed up metadata operations)
  1647. - check/delete/prune --save-space: free unused segments quickly, #239
  1648. - increase rpc protocol version to 2 (see also Compatibility notes), #458
  1649. - silence borg by default (via default log level WARNING)
  1650. - get rid of C compiler warnings, #391
  1651. - upgrade OS X FUSE to 3.0.9 on the OS X binary build system
  1652. - use python 3.5.1 to build binaries
  1653. - docs:
  1654. - new mailing list borgbackup@python.org, #468
  1655. - readthedocs: color and logo improvements
  1656. - load coverage icons over SSL (avoids mixed content)
  1657. - more precise binary installation steps
  1658. - update release procedure docs about OS X FUSE
  1659. - FAQ entry about unexpected 'A' status for unchanged file(s), #403
  1660. - add docs about 'E' file status
  1661. - add "borg upgrade" docs, #464
  1662. - add developer docs about output and logging
  1663. - clarify encryption, add note about client-side encryption
  1664. - add resources section, with videos, talks, presentations, #149
  1665. - Borg moved to Arch Linux [community]
  1666. - fix wrong installation instructions for archlinux
  1667. Version 0.28.2 (2015-11-15)
  1668. ---------------------------
  1669. New features:
  1670. - borg create --exclude-if-present TAGFILE - exclude directories that have the
  1671. given file from the backup. You can additionally give --keep-tag-files to
  1672. preserve just the directory roots and the tag-files (but not backup other
  1673. directory contents), #395, attic #128, attic #142
  1674. Other changes:
  1675. - do not create docs sources at build time (just have them in the repo),
  1676. completely remove have_cython() hack, do not use the "mock" library at build
  1677. time, #384
  1678. - avoid hidden import, make it easier for PyInstaller, easier fix for #218
  1679. - docs:
  1680. - add description of item flags / status output, fixes #402
  1681. - explain how to regenerate usage and API files (build_api or
  1682. build_usage) and when to commit usage files directly into git, #384
  1683. - minor install docs improvements

  1862. Version 0.25.0 (2015-08-29)
  1863. ---------------------------
  1864. Compatibility notes:
  1865. - lz4 compression library (liblz4) is a new requirement (#156)
  1866. - the new compression code is very compatible: as long as you stay with zlib
  1867. compression, older borg releases will still be able to read data from a
  1868. repo/archive made with the new code (note: this is not the case for the
  1869. default "none" compression, use "zlib,0" if you want a "no compression" mode
  1870. that can be read by older borg). Also the new code is able to read repos and
  1871. archives made with older borg versions (for all zlib levels 0..9).
  1872. Deprecations:
  1873. - --compression N (with N being a number, as in 0.24) is deprecated.
  1874. We keep the --compression 0..9 for now to not break scripts, but it is
  1875. deprecated and will be removed later, so better fix your scripts now:
  1876. --compression 0 (as in 0.24) is the same as --compression zlib,0 (now).
  1877. BUT: if you do not want compression, you rather want --compression none
  1878. (which is the default).
  1879. --compression 1 (in 0.24) is the same as --compression zlib,1 (now)
  1880. --compression 9 (in 0.24) is the same as --compression zlib,9 (now)
  1881. New features:
  1882. - create --compression none (default, means: do not compress, just pass through
  1883. data "as is". this is more efficient than zlib level 0 as used in borg 0.24)
  1884. - create --compression lz4 (super-fast, but not very high compression)
  1885. - create --compression zlib,N (slower, higher compression, default for N is 6)
  1886. - create --compression lzma,N (slowest, highest compression, default N is 6)
  1887. - honor the nodump flag (UF_NODUMP) and do not backup such items
  1888. - list --short just outputs a simple list of the files/directories in an archive
  1889. Bug fixes:
  1890. - fixed --chunker-params parameter order confusion / malfunction, fixes #154
  1891. - close fds of segments we delete (during compaction)
  1892. - close files which fell out the lrucache
  1893. - fadvise DONTNEED now is only called for the byte range actually read, not for
  1894. the whole file, fixes #158.
  1895. - fix issue with negative "all archives" size, fixes #165
  1896. - restore_xattrs: ignore if setxattr fails with EACCES, fixes #162
  1897. Other changes:
  1898. - remove fakeroot requirement for tests, tests run faster without fakeroot
  1899. (test setup does not fail any more without fakeroot, so you can run with or
  1900. without fakeroot), fixes #151 and #91.
  1901. - more tests for archiver
  1902. - recover_segment(): don't assume we have an fd for segment
  1903. - lrucache refactoring / cleanup, add dispose function, py.test tests
  1904. - generalize hashindex code for any key length (less hardcoding)
  1905. - lock roster: catch file not found in remove() method and ignore it
  1906. - travis CI: use requirements file
  1907. - improved docs:
  1908. - replace hack for llfuse with proper solution (install libfuse-dev)
  1909. - update docs about compression
  1910. - update development docs about fakeroot
  1911. - internals: add some words about lock files / locking system
  1912. - support: mention BountySource and for what it can be used
  1913. - theme: use a lighter green
  1914. - add pypi, wheel, dist package based install docs
  1915. - split install docs into system-specific preparations and generic instructions
  1916. Version 0.24.0 (2015-08-09)
  1917. ---------------------------
  1918. Incompatible changes (compared to 0.23):
  1919. - borg now always issues --umask NNN option when invoking another borg via ssh
  1920. on the repository server. By that, it's making sure it uses the same umask
  1921. for remote repos as for local ones. Because of this, you must upgrade both
  1922. server and client(s) to 0.24.
  1923. - the default umask is 077 now (if you do not specify via --umask) which might
  1924. be a different one as you used previously. The default umask avoids that
  1925. you accidentally give access permissions for group and/or others to files
  1926. created by borg (e.g. the repository).
  1927. Deprecations:
  1928. - "--encryption passphrase" mode is deprecated, see #85 and #97.
  1929. See the new "--encryption repokey" mode for a replacement.
  1930. New features:
  1931. - borg create --chunker-params ... to configure the chunker, fixes #16
  1932. (attic #302, attic #300, and somehow also #41).
  1933. This can be used to reduce memory usage caused by chunk management overhead,
  1934. so borg does not create a huge chunks index/repo index and eats all your RAM
  1935. if you back up lots of data in huge files (like VM disk images).
  1936. See docs/misc/create_chunker-params.txt for more information.
  1937. - borg info now reports chunk counts in the chunk index.
  1938. - borg create --compression 0..9 to select zlib compression level, fixes #66
  1939. (attic #295).
  1940. - borg init --encryption repokey (to store the encryption key into the repo),
  1941. fixes #85
  1942. - improve at-end error logging, always log exceptions and set exit_code=1
  1943. - LoggedIO: better error checks / exceptions / exception handling
  1944. - implement --remote-path to allow non-default-path borg locations, #125
  1945. - implement --umask M and use 077 as default umask for better security, #117
  1946. - borg check: give a named single archive to it, fixes #139
  1947. - cache sync: show progress indication
  1948. - cache sync: reimplement the chunk index merging in C
  1949. Bug fixes:
  1950. - fix segfault that happened for unreadable files (chunker: n needs to be a
  1951. signed size_t), #116
  1952. - fix the repair mode, #144
  1953. - repo delete: add destroy to allowed rpc methods, fixes issue #114
  1954. - more compatible repository locking code (based on mkdir), maybe fixes #92
  1955. (attic #317, attic #201).
  1956. - better Exception msg if no Borg is installed on the remote repo server, #56
  1957. - create a RepositoryCache implementation that can cope with >2GiB,
  1958. fixes attic #326.
  1959. - fix Traceback when running check --repair, attic #232
  1960. - clarify help text, fixes #73.
  1961. - add help string for --no-files-cache, fixes #140
  1962. Other changes:
  1963. - improved docs:
  1964. - added docs/misc directory for misc. writeups that won't be included
  1965. "as is" into the html docs.
  1966. - document environment variables and return codes (attic #324, attic #52)
  1967. - web site: add related projects, fix web site url, IRC #borgbackup
  1968. - Fedora/Fedora-based install instructions added to docs
  1969. - Cygwin-based install instructions added to docs

  1978. - add solutions for (ll)fuse installation problems
  1979. - document what borg check does, fixes #138
  1980. - reorganize borgbackup.github.io sidebar, prev/next at top
  1981. - deduplicate and refactor the docs / README.rst
  1982. - use borg-tmp as prefix for temporary files / directories
  1983. - short prune options without "keep-" are deprecated, do not suggest them
  1984. - improved tox configuration
  1985. - remove usage of unittest.mock, always use mock from pypi
  1986. - use entrypoints instead of scripts, for better use of the wheel format and
  1987. modern installs
  1988. - add requirements.d/development.txt and modify tox.ini
  1989. - use travis-ci for testing based on Linux and (new) OS X
  1990. - use coverage.py, pytest-cov and codecov.io for test coverage support
  1991. I forgot to list some stuff already implemented in 0.23.0, here they are:
  1992. New features:
  1993. - efficient archive list from manifest, meaning a big speedup for slow
  1994. repo connections and "list <repo>", "delete <repo>", "prune" (attic #242,
  1995. attic #167)
  1996. - big speedup for chunks cache sync (esp. for slow repo connections), fixes #18
  1997. - hashindex: improve error messages
  1998. Other changes:
  1999. - explicitly specify binary mode to open binary files
  2000. - some easy micro optimizations
  2001. Version 0.23.0 (2015-06-11)
  2002. ---------------------------
  2003. Incompatible changes (compared to attic, fork related):
  2004. - changed sw name and cli command to "borg", updated docs
  2005. - package name (and name in urls) uses "borgbackup" to have less collisions
  2006. - changed repo / cache internal magic strings from ATTIC* to BORG*,
  2007. changed cache location to .cache/borg/ - this means that it currently won't
  2008. accept attic repos (see issue #21 about improving that)
  2009. Bug fixes:
