NCDU (NCurses Disk Usage) is a tool to analyse disk usage of directories.
It has an option to save a directory tree and analyse it later.
This patch adds an output option to the ls command.
A snapshot can be seen with
`restic ls latest --ncdu | ncdu -f -`

Currently, the cmd/restic package contains a significant amount of code
that modifies repository internals. This code should in the mid-term
move into the repository package.
LoadBlobsFromPack is now part of the repository struct. This ensures
that users of that method don't have to deal will internals of the
repository implementation.
The filerestorer tests now also contain far fewer pack file
implementation details.
It was only used in two places:
- stats: apparently as a minor performance optimization, which is
unlikely to be important
- find: filtered directories would be ignored. However, this
optimization missed that it is possible that two directories have the
exact same content. Such directories would be incorrectly ignored too.
Example:
```
mkdir test test/a test/b
restic backup test
restic find latest test/b
-> incorrectly does not return anything
```
Thus, remove the functionality as it's apparently too complex to use
correctly.
When using `RESTIC_REPOSITORY_FILE` in combination with `restic init`,
the repository is missing in the output:
```
$ restic init
created restic repository 3c872be20f at
[...]
```
This is due to the code using `gopts.Repo`, which is empty in this case.
This change better resembles the output generated by `Snapshot.String()`,
which includes both username and hostname.

This introduces a new modifier to the output of the diff command. It
appears whenever two files being compared only differ in their content
but not in their metadata. As far as we know, under normal
circumstances, this should only ever happen if some kind of bitrot has
happened in the source file. The prerequisite for this detection to work
is that the right-side snapshot of the comparison has been created with
"backup --force".
Adds
* snapshotMetadataArgs, which holds the new metadata as strings parsed from
the command line
* snapshotMetadata, which holds the new metadata converted to the
correct types
Bug #1681 suggests that restic should not be nice to user and should
refrain from creating a mountpoint if it does not exist. Nevertheless,
it currently opens the repository before checking for the mountpoint's
existence. In the case of large or remote repositories, this process
can be time-consuming, delaying the inevitable outcome.
/restic mount --repo=REMOTE --verbose /tmp/backup
repository 33f14e42 opened (version 2, compression level max)
[0:38] 100.00% 162 / 162 index files loaded
Mountpoint /tmp/backup doesn't exist
stat /tmp/backup: no such file or directory
real 0m39.534s
user 1m53.961s
sys 0m3.044s
In this scenario, 40 seconds could have been saved if the nonexistence
of the path had been verified beforehand.
This patch relocates the mountpoint check to the beginning of the
runMount function, preceding the opening of the repository.
/restic mount --repo=REMOTE --verbose /tmp/backup
Mountpoint /tmp/backup doesn't exist
stat /tmp/backup: no such file or directory

The behavior of the new option should reflect the behavior of normal backups: when the command exit code is zero and there is no output in the stdout, emit a warning but create the snapshot. This commit fixes the integration tests and the ReadCloserCommand struct.
In order to determine whether to save a snapshot, we need to capture the exit code returned by a command. In order to provide a nice error message, we supply stderr as well.

It acts similar to --stdin but reads its data from the stdout of the given command instead of os.Stdin.
Signed-off-by: Sebastian Hoß <seb@xn--ho-hia.de>
In order to run with --stdin-from-command we need to short-circuit some functions similar to how it is handled for the --stdin flag. The only difference here is that --stdin-from-command actually expects that len(args) should be greater 0 whereas --stdin does not expect any args at all.

This new flag is added to the backup subcommand in order to allow restic to control the execution of a command and determine whether to save a snapshot if the given command succeeds.

inodes are only unique within a device. Use the HardlinkIndex from the
restorer instead of the custom (broken) hashmap to correctly account for
both inode and deviceID.
For now, the guide is only shown if the blob content does not match its
hash. The main intended usage is to handle data corruption errors when
using maximum compression in restic 0.16.0
This introduces the inode attribute to the JSON output emitted for nodes
in `ls` and matches in `find`. There doesn't seem to be any discernible
reason to omit the inode and it can be useful in scripting scenarios.
A delayed lock refresh could send a signal on the `refreshed` channel
while the `monitorLockRefresh` goroutine waits for a reply to its
`refreshLockRequest`. As the channels are unbuffered, this resulted in a
deadlock.
A stale lock may be refreshed if it continues to exist until after a
replacement lock has been created. This ensures that a repository was
not unlocked in the meantime.
Conceptually the backend configuration should be validated when creating
or opening the backend, but not when filling in information from
environment variables into the configuration.
This unified construction removes most backend-specific code from
global.go. The backend registry will also enable integration tests to
use custom backends if necessary.
In order to change the backend initialization in `global.go` to be able
to generically call cfg.ApplyEnvironment() for supported backends, the
`interface{}` returned by `ParseConfig` must contain a pointer to the
configuration.
An alternative would be to use reflection to convert the type from
`interface{}(Config)` to `interface{}(*Config)` (from value to pointer
type). However, this would just complicate the type mess further.
The index used by restic consumes a major part of the total memory
usage. This leads to an unnecessarily large amount of memory that
contains ephemeral objects that are only used for a short time.
Modifies format module to add options for human readable storage size formatting, using size parsing already in ui/format.
Cmd flag --human-readable added to ls and find commands.
Additional option added to formatNode to support printing size in regular or new human readable format
The tests are now split into individual files for each command. The
separation isn't perfect as many tests make use of multiple commands. In
particular `init`, `backup`, `check` and `list` are used by a larger
number of test cases.
Most tests now reside in files name cmd_<name>_integration_test.go. This
provides a certain indication which commands have significant test
coverage.
Use the logging methods from testing.TB to make use of tb.Helper(). This
allows the tests to log the filename and line number in which the test
helper was called. Previously the test helper was logged which is rarely
useful.
As the `Fatal` error type only includes a string, it becomes impossible
to inspect the contained error. This is for a example a problem for the
fuse implementation, which must be able to detect context.Canceled
errors.

The previous approach of rewriting all snapshots first, then flushing
the repository data and finally removing old snapshots has the downside
that an interrupted command execution leaves behind broken snapshots as
not all new data is already flushed.
This adds support for caching already rewritten trees, handling of load
errors and disabling the check that the serialization doesn't lead to
data loss.
The more generic RewriteNode callback replaces the SelectByName and
PrintExclude functions. The main part of this change is a preparation to
allow using the TreeRewriter for the `repair snapshots` command.
The files in a tree must be sorted in lexical order. However, this
cannot be guaranteed when appending a filename suffix. For two files
file, file.rep
where "file" is broken, this would result in
file.repaired, file.rep
which is no longer sorted.
In addition, adding a filename suffix is also prone to filename
collisions which would require a rather complex search for a
collision-free name in order to work reliably.
Simplify CLI options:
* Rename "DeleteSnapshots" to "Forget"
* Replace "AddTag" and "Append" with hardcoded values
Change output and snapshot modifications to be more in line with the
"rewrite" command.
The builtin mechanism to capture a stacktrace in Go is to send a SIGQUIT
to the running process. However, this mechanism is not avaiable on
Windows. Thus, tweak the SIGINT handler to dump a stacktrace if the
environment variable `RESTIC_DEBUG_STACKTRACE_SIGINT` is set.
When saving files to the local backend, in some cases the used fsync
calls are slow enough to cause the tests to time out. Thus, increase the
test timeouts as a stopgap measure until we can use the mem backend for
these tests.
The SemaphoreBackend now uniformly enforces the limit of concurrent
backend operations. In addition, it unifies the parameter validation.
The List() methods no longer uses a semaphore. Restic already never runs
multiple list operations in parallel.
By managing the semaphore in a wrapper backend, the sections that hold a
semaphore token grow slightly. However, the main bottleneck is IO, so
this shouldn't make much of a difference.
The key insight that enables the SemaphoreBackend is that all of the
complex semaphore handling in `openReader()` still happens within the
original call to `Load()`. Thus, getting and releasing the semaphore
tokens can be refactored to happen directly in `Load()`. This eliminates
the need for wrapping the reader in `openReader()` to release the token.
This turns snapshotFilterOptions from cmd into a restic.SnapshotFilter
type and makes restic.FindFilteredSnapshot and FindFilteredSnapshots
methods on that type. This fixes#4211 by ensuring that hosts and paths
are named struct fields instead of unnamed function arguments in long
lists of such.
Timestamp limits are also included in the new type. To avoid too much
pointer handling, the convention is that time zero means no limit.
That's January 1st, year 1, 00:00 UTC, which is so unlikely a date that
we can sacrifice it for simpler code.
The output is now
```
-v, --verbose be verbose (specify multiple times or a level using --verbose=n, max level/times is 2)
```
instead of
```
-v, --verbose n be verbose (specify multiple times or a level using --verbose=n, max level/times is 2)
```
Fixes restic#719
If the option is passed, restic will wait the specified duration of time
and retry locking the repo every 10 seconds (or more often if the total
timeout is relatively small).
- Play nice with json output
- Reduce wait time in lock tests
- Rework timeout last attempt
- Reduce test wait time to 0.1s
- Use exponential back off for the retry lock
- Don't pass gopts to lockRepo functions
- Use global variable for retry sleep setup
- Exit retry lock on cancel
- Better wording for flag help
- Reorder debug statement
- Refactor tests
- Lower max sleep time to 1m
- Test that we cancel/timeout in time
- Use non blocking sleep function
- Refactor into minDuration func

This method had a buffer argument, but that was nil at all call sites.
That's removed, and instead LoadUnpacked now reuses whatever it
allocates inside its retry loop.
The StdioWrapper is not used at all by the ProgressPrinters. It is
called a bit earlier than previously. However, as the password prompt
directly accessed stdin/stdout this doesn't cause problems.
The maximum for `--verbose=n` is n=2. Internally it is translated into a
scale from 0 to 3. However, the default (without verbose) is 1, thus the
verbosity level can only be increased two times.
Only the repacking of *un*compressed packs reduces the amount of
uncompressed data. Previously the counter even overflowed for fully
compressed repositories.
Commands should use the normal shutdown path. In addition, the Exitf
function was only used by `dump` and `restore` but not any other command
which introduces the risk of inconsistent behavior.
When reporting an error for a tree, the output message can overlap with
the progress bar output, e.g. `error for tree e91ef6fb:napshots`.
The fix only applies for this specific message and does not work on
Windows.

`xbuild` does not look like a go build/tag keyword to me, I failed to
find documentation for it and using `go install -tags '!selfupdate' ...`
has no effect, i.e. self-update code is still compiled.
`+build` however works; updating the OpenBSD port/binary package
security/restic to apply this PR works as expected:
```
$ restic help | grep self
$ restic self-update
unknown command "self-update" for "restic"
```
(Using `go:build` now as per restic's style and gofmt.)
Previously, using `restic-0.14.0p1` on OpenBSD/amd64 7.2-current would
check for a newer version and probably attempt replacing the system wide
root-owned executable (on a read-only filesystem) as unprivileged user:
```
$ restic version
restic 0.14.0 compiled with go1.19.2 on openbsd/amd64
$ restic help | grep self
self-update Update the restic binary
$ restic self-update
writing restic to /usr/local/bin/restic
find latest release of restic at GitHub
restic is up to date
```
(It never tried to actually write besaid path; doing so would fail, so
the current message can be considered misleading.)
The scanner process has only cosmetic effect for the progress printer,
and can be disabled without impacting functionality when the user does
not need an estimate of completion.
In many cases the scanner process can provide beneficial priming of
the file system cache, so as general advice it should not be disabled.
However, tests have shown that backup of NFS and fuse based filesystems,
where stat(2) is relatively expensive, can be significantly faster
without the scanner.
The Original field is meant to remember the original snapshot id if e.g.
changing its tags. It was only set by the `rewrite` command if it was
not set previously. However, a rewritten snapshot is potentially rather
different from the original snapshot. Thus just always set the Original
field. This also makes it easier to later on detect and potentially
remove the original snapshots.
The ioutil functions are deprecated since Go 1.17 and only wrap another
library function. Thus directly call the underlying function.
This commit only mechanically replaces the function calls.
The old check did not consider files containing case insensitive
excludes. The check is now implemented as a function of the
excludePatternOptions struct to improve cohesion.
