Details
-------
* Bugfix #1989: Google Cloud Storage: Respect bandwidth limit
The GCS backend did not respect the bandwidth limit configured, a previous commit
accidentally removed support for it.
https://github.com/restic/restic/issues/1989
https://github.com/restic/restic/pull/2100
* Bugfix #2040: Add host name filter shorthand flag for `stats` command
The default value for `--host` flag was set to 'H' (the shorthand version of the flag), this
caused the lookup for the latest snapshot to fail.
Add shorthand flag `-H` for `--host` (with empty default so if these flags are not specified the
latest snapshot will not filter by host name).
Also add shorthand `-H` for `backup` command.
https://github.com/restic/restic/issues/2040
* Bugfix #2068: Correctly return error loading data
In one case during `prune` and `check`, an error loading data from the backend is not returned
properly. This is now corrected.
https://github.com/restic/restic/issues/1999#issuecomment-433737921
https://github.com/restic/restic/pull/2068
* Bugfix #2095: Consistently use local time for snapshots times
By default snapshots created with restic backup were set to local time, but when the --time flag
was used the provided timestamp was parsed as UTC. With this change all snapshots times are set
to local time.
https://github.com/restic/restic/pull/2095
* Enhancement #1605: Concurrent restore
This change significantly improves restore performance, especially when using
high-latency remote repositories like B2.
The implementation now uses several concurrent threads to download and process multiple
remote files concurrently. To further reduce restore time, each remote file is downloaded
using a single repository request.
https://github.com/restic/restic/issues/1605
https://github.com/restic/restic/pull/1719
* Enhancement #2089: Increase granularity of the "keep within" retention policy
The `keep-within` option of the `forget` command now accepts time ranges with an hourly
granularity. For example, running `restic forget --keep-within 3d12h` will keep all the
snapshots made within three days and twelve hours from the time of the latest snapshot.
https://github.com/restic/restic/issues/2089
https://github.com/restic/restic/pull/2090
* Enhancement #2097: Add key hinting
Added a new option `--key-hint` and corresponding environment variable `RESTIC_KEY_HINT`.
The key hint is a key ID to try decrypting first, before other keys in the repository.
This change will benefit repositories with many keys; if the correct key hint is supplied then
restic only needs to check one key. If the key hint is incorrect (the key does not exist, or the
password is incorrect) then restic will check all keys, as usual.
https://github.com/restic/restic/issues/2097
* Enhancement #2017: Mount: Enforce FUSE Unix permissions with allow-other
The fuse mount (`restic mount`) now lets the kernel check the permissions of the files within
snapshots (this is done through the `DefaultPermissions` FUSE option) when the option
`--allow-other` is specified.
To restore the old behavior, we've added the `--no-default-permissions` option. This allows
all users that have access to the mount point to access all files within the snapshots.
https://github.com/restic/restic/pull/2017
* Enhancement #2070: Make all commands display timestamps in local time
Restic used to drop the timezone information from displayed timestamps, it now converts
timestamps to local time before printing them so the times can be easily compared to.
https://github.com/restic/restic/pull/2070
* Enhancement #2085: Allow --files-from to be specified multiple times
Before, restic took only the last file specified with `--files-from` into account, this is now
corrected.
https://github.com/restic/restic/issues/2085
https://github.com/restic/restic/pull/2086
* Enhancement #2094: Run command to get password
We've added the `--password-command` option which allows specifying a command that restic
runs every time the password for the repository is needed, so it can be integrated with a
password manager or keyring. The option can also be set via the environment variable
`$RESTIC_PASSWORD_COMMAND`.

* Enhancement #1962: Stream JSON output for ls command
The `ls` command now supports JSON output with the global `--json` flag, and this change
streams out JSON messages one object at a time rather than en entire array buffered in memory
before encoding. The advantage is it allows large listings to be handled efficiently.
Two message types are printed: snapshots and nodes. A snapshot object will precede node
objects which belong to that snapshot. The `struct_type` field can be used to determine which
kind of message an object is.
