While it is true borg started as a fork of Attic, this is ancient history.
'attic fork' confused me, suggesting this was some custom fork of borgbackup
instead of the regular version.
The backblaze library moved into the b2sdk package.
If it’s not used, duplicity fails loading the b2:// backend.
> BackendException: B2 backend requires B2 Python SDK (pip install
b2sdk)
@the-kenny did a good job in the past and is set as maintainer in many package,
however since 2017-2018 he stopped contributing. To create less confusion
in pull requests when people try to request his feedback, I removed him as
maintainer from all packages.
Tested by dumping a small filesystem and extracting files from the dump using
restore -i. It worked, but complained:
DUMP: WARNING: no file `/nix/store/y7r0q9l7663vii0j0lqlrwyi073z81n8-dump-0.4b46/etc/dumpdates'
In the Rust platform builder, the attribute `cargoPatches` must be used if we
want to consistently apply a patch to the `Cargo.lock` in the vendored
`cargoDeps` and to the `Cargo.lock` in the `src` attribute.
This fixes the build by applying that patch consistently, so the coherency
checker in the newer Rust cargo builder passes.
Version 1.1.11 (2020-03-08)
Compatibility notes:
When upgrading from borg 1.0.x to 1.1.x, please note:
read all the compatibility notes for 1.1.0*, starting from 1.1.0b1.
borg upgrade: you do not need to and you also should not run it.
borg might ask some security-related questions once after upgrading. You can answer them either manually or via environment variable. One known case is if you use unencrypted repositories, then it will ask about a unknown unencrypted repository one time.
your first backup with 1.1.x might be significantly slower (it might completely read, chunk, hash a lot files) - this is due to the --files-cache mode change (and happens every time you change mode). You can avoid the one-time slowdown by using the pre-1.1.0rc4-compatible mode (but that is less safe for detecting changed files than the default). See the --files-cache docs for details.
1.1.11 removes WSL autodetection (Windows 10 Subsystem for Linux). If WSL still has a problem with sync_file_range, you need to set BORG_WORKAROUNDS=basesyncfile in the borg process environment to work around the WSL issue.
Fixes:
fixed potential index corruption / data loss issue due to bug in hashindex_set, #4829 Please read and follow the more detailled notes close to the top of this document.
upgrade bundled xxhash to 0.7.3, #4891 0.7.2 is the minimum requirement for correct operations on ARMv6 in non-fixup mode, where unaligned memory accesses cause bus errors. 0.7.3 adds some speedups and libxxhash 0.7.3 even has a pkg-config file now.

allow osx builds to fail, #4955 this is due to travis-ci frequently being so slow that the OS X builds just fail because they exceed 50 minutes and get killed by travis.
Changes the default fetcher in the Rust Platform to be the newer
`fetchCargoTarball`, and changes every application using the current default to
instead opt out.
This commit does not change any hashes or cause any rebuilds. Once integrated,
we will start deleting the opt-outs and recomputing hashes.
See #79975 for details.
According to https://repology.org/repository/nix_unstable/problems, we have a
lot of packages that have http links that redirect to https as their homepage.
This commit updates all these packages to use the https links as their
homepage.
The following script was used to make these updates:
```
curl https://repology.org/api/v1/repository/nix_unstable/problems \
| jq '.[] | .problem' -r \
| rg 'Homepage link "(.+)" is a permanent redirect to "(.+)" and should be updated' --replace 's@$1@$2@' \
| sort | uniq > script.sed
find -name '*.nix' | xargs -P4 -- sed -f script.sed -i
```
