The file permissions included a go specific directory bit which
accidentially forced the usage of the GNU header format. This leads
to problems with 7zip on Windows or when extended attributes are
used.
The VSS support works for 32 and 64-bit windows, this includes a check that
the restic version matches the OS architecture as required by VSS. The backup
operation will fail the user has not sufficient permissions to use VSS.
Snapshotting volumes also covers mountpoints but skips UNC paths.
The io.Reader interface does not support contexts, such that it is
necessary to embed the context into the backendReaderAt struct. This has
the problem that a reader might suddenly stop working when it's
contained context is canceled. However, this is now problem here as the
reader instances never escape the calling function.
The list operation used by RemoveStaleLocks or RemoveAllLocks will
already be canceled by the passed in context. Therefore we can also just
cancel the remove operation as the unlock command won't process all lock
files anyways.
This is no change in behavior as a canceled context did later on cause
the config file creation to fail. Therefore this change just lets the
repository initialization fail a bit earlier.
We now use v4 of the module. `backoff.WithMaxRetries` no longer repeats
an operation endlessly when a retry count of 0 is specified. This
required a few fixes for the tests.
The file is already created with the proper permissions, thus the chmod
call is not critical. However, some file systems have don't allow
modifications of the file permissions. Similarly the chmod call in the Remove
operation should not prevent it from working.
Many instances of errors.Wrap in this package would produce messages
like "Open: open <filename>: no such file or directory"; those now omit
the first "Open:" (or "Stat:", or "MkdirAll"). The function readVersion
now appends its own name to the error message, rather than the function
that failed, to make it easier to spot. Other function names (e.g.,
Load) are already added further up in the call chain.
The archiver first called the Select function for a path before checking
whether the Lstat on that path actually worked. The RejectFuncs in
exclude.go worked around this by checking whether they received a nil
os.FileInfo. Checking first is more obvious and requires less code.
