Windows, and to a lesser extent OS X, don't conform to XDG and have
their own preferred locations for caches.
On Windows, use %LOCALAPPDATA%/restic (i.e., ~/AppData/Local/restic). I
can't find authoritative documentation from Microsoft recommending
specifically which of %APPDATA%, %LOCALAPPDATA%, and %TEMP% should be
used for caches, but %LOCALAPPDATA% is where browsers store their
caches, so it seems like a good fit.
On OS X, use ~/Library/Caches/restic, which is recommended by the Apple
documentation. They do suggest using the application "bundle identifier"
as the base folder name, but restic doesn't have one, so I just used
"restic".
This commit adds code to synchronize downloading files to the cache.
Before, requests that came in for files currently downloading would fail
because the file was not completed in the cache. Now, the code waits
until the download is completed.
Closes#1278
This commit adds a function to the cache which can decide to proactively
load the complete pack file and store it in the cache. This is helpful
for pack files containing only tree blobs, as it is likely that the same
file is accessed again in the future.
This commits adds rudimentary support for a cache directory, enabled by
default. The cache directory is created if it does not exist. The cache
is used if there's anything in it, newly created snapshot and index
files are written to the cache automatically.
