Bugfix: Handle unreadable xattrs in folders above `backup` target
2024-07-22 22:19:22 +00:00
When backup targets are specified using absolute paths, `backup` also includes
information about the parent folders of the backup targets in the snapshot.
If the extended attributes for some of these folders could not be read due to
missing permissions, this caused the backup to fail. This has now been fixed.
