Tree packs are cached locally at clients and thus benefit a lot from
being compressed. Ensure this be having prune always repack pack files
containing uncompressed trees.
The `stats` command checks inodes to not count hardlinked files multiple
times into the restore size. This check applies across all snapshots and
not only within snapshots. As a result the result size was far too low
when calculating it for multiple snapshots and it would vary depending
on the order in which snapshots were listed.
The new option allows prune to operate with nearly no scratch space by only removing
no longer necessary pack files and first deleting the index before
rebuilding it. By first deleting the index it becomes safe to just
delete no longer necessary pack files. However, as a downside there's
now the risk that the repository becomes inaccessible if prune fails.
To recover from that problem a user might have to manually delete the
repository index and then run (a full) `rebuild-index` again.
A compressed index is only about one third the size of an uncompressed
one. Thus increase the number of entries in an index to avoid cluttering
the repository with small indexes.
As an exception prune is still allowed to load the index before
snapshots, as it uses exclusive locks. In case of problems with locking
it is also better to load snapshots created after loading the index, as
this will lead to a prune sanity check failure instead of a broken snapshot.
When resolving snapshotIDs in FindFilteredSnapshots either
FindLatestSnapshot or FindSnapshot is called. Both operations issue a
list operation to the backend. When for example passing a long list of
snapshot ids to `forget` this could lead to a large number of list
operations.
These commands filter the snapshots according to some criteria which
essentially requires loading the index before filtering the snapshots.
Thus create a copy of the snapshots list beforehand and use it later on.
During a backup the index is written before the corresponding snapshots.
To ensure that a concurrent/later restic run can read a snapshot's data,
restic thus must first load the snapshots and only afterwards the index.
Otherwise it is not possible to ensure that the loaded index is recent
enough to cover all of the snapshot's data.
Nodes in trees were always printed with a `+` in diff, regardless of
whether or not a dir was added or removed. Let's use the mode we were
passed in printDir().
Closes#3685
The repack operation copies all selected blobs from a set of pack files
into new pack files. For prune the source and destination repositories
are identical. To implement copy, just use a different source and
destination repository.
