# Changelog for restic 0.17.2 (2024-10-27)
The following sections list the changes in restic 0.17.2 relevant to
restic users. The changes are ordered by importance.
## Summary
* Fix #4004: Support container-level SAS/SAT tokens for Azure backend
* Fix #5047: Resolve potential error during concurrent cache cleanup
* Fix #5050: Return error if `tag` fails to lock repository
* Fix #5057: Exclude irregular files from backups
* Fix #5063: Correctly `backup` extended metadata when using VSS on Windows
## Details
* Bugfix #4004: Support container-level SAS/SAT tokens for Azure backend
Restic previously expected SAS/SAT tokens to be generated at the account level,
which prevented tokens created at the container level from being used to
initialize a repository. This caused an error when attempting to initialize a
repository with container-level tokens.
Restic now supports both account-level and container-level SAS/SAT tokens for
initializing a repository.

* Bugfix #5047: Resolve potential error during concurrent cache cleanup
When multiple restic processes ran concurrently, they could compete to remove
obsolete snapshots from the local backend cache, sometimes leading to a "no such
file or directory" error. Restic now suppresses this error to prevent issues
during cache cleanup.
https://github.com/restic/restic/pull/5047
* Bugfix #5050: Return error if `tag` fails to lock repository
Since restic 0.17.0, the `tag` command did not return an error when it failed to
open or lock the repository. This issue has now been fixed.

https://github.com/restic/restic/pull/5056
* Bugfix #5057: Exclude irregular files from backups
Since restic 0.17.1, files with the type `irregular` could mistakenly be
included in snapshots, especially when backing up special file types on Windows
that restic cannot process. This issue has now been fixed.
Previously, this bug caused the `check` command to report errors like the
following one:
```
tree 12345678[...]: node "example.zip" with invalid type "irregular"
```
To repair affected snapshots, upgrade to restic 0.17.2 and run:
```
restic repair snapshots --forget
```
This will remove the `irregular` files from the snapshots (creating a new
snapshot ID for each of the affected snapshots).

* Bugfix #5063: Correctly `backup` extended metadata when using VSS on Windows
On Windows, when creating a backup with the `--use-fs-snapshot` option, restic
read extended metadata from the original filesystem path instead of from the
snapshot. This could result in errors if files were removed during the backup
process.
This issue has now been resolved.
