1.5.0

I have merged my "dar manager" branch to main, and created this release.

The dar-backup scripts now maintains a dar catalog for each backup definition. This makes is easier to restore files spread over FULL, DIFF and INC archives.

The use of catalogs are by default set to "n" in the dar-backup.conf file. Switch to "y" when you are ready :-)

I have used the dar-manager branch for months and consider it safe to use. Improvements and especially the issue with my pCloud storage will be investigated over time.

1.4.3

This is a maintenance/bugfix release with some changes, no new functionality.

During the yearly backups, I encountered a bug when generating the par2 files. It occurred only on the file system mounted from the cloud. I ended up refactoring how the par2 files are generated, which had the added benefit of a more simple setup.

- par2 now generated from within the script - not using the dar integrated system (allows for async par2 generation on the remote server)
- a small fix in the installer to make sure scripts are executable
- no exit if a backup definition fails, do the next one

1.4.2

Bugfix:

- cleanup.sh data parsing error, October not recognized.

Changes:

1.4.1

Fix:
- systemd services fix, so that timers work as expected, if reboots do not happen nightly.

Improvements:
- cleanup.sh --cleanup-specific-archive <archive> removes the archive + par2 files, no matter the age of the archive.
- ls-archives.sh --backupdef <definition> lists only the archives for the specified backup definition.
- dar-backup.sh --version prints the version.
- much less chatty log messages, use --verbose to have more printed.
