20240531.0

- Will now compress and upload snapshot files from incomplete runs (such as having errored, etc).
- Snapshots are now written to the cache dir instead of temp dir so that they persist across failed runs.
- Adds `--upload` to `advanced dbimport` to upload the import files to the repository
- Minor Bug Fixes:
- stats with no current transfers

These additions further hardens the snapshots as a *secondary* source of information. The files themselves remain ground-truth regardless!

20240428.0

- **Potentially Breaking**: Change the way dfb handles symlinks on local-to-local backups. See [symlink update document](symlink_update.md) for more details and how to convert the remote.
- **Important**: Setting `links` in the config is deprecated. Use the equivalent noted in symlink update document](symlink_update.md) in the `rclone_flags`.
- This better matches rclone's default behavior, fixes the prior issues with restore, and closes 1

- Minor fixes and improvements.

20240309.0

Minor!

- Added `DFB_OVERRIDE_TIMESTAMP` and `DFB_OVERRIDE_UNIXTIME` environment to override the current time. These should be used carefully!
