The
par2
command (invoked bybup fsck -g
) may generate empty recovery files if interrupted (say via C-c). To mitigate this, bup now runspar2
in a temporary directory, and only moves the recovery files into place if the generation succeeds. It will also look for any empty par2 files, or incomplete sets, associated with packfiles that it has been asked to examine. If found, they will provoke an error. See also Parchive/par2cmdline#84 -
Previously, any
bup on REMOTE ...
commands that attempted to read from standard input (for examplebup on HOST split < something
orbup on HOST split --git-ids ...
) would read nothing instead of the original content of standard input. Now those commands will either reject the invocation, or just crash when they attempt to read a closed stream. -
When building bup, if your version of GNU make is not named
make
, prefer invoking it directly (e.g.gmake -j4 check
) instead of relying on the ./Makefile to redirect to GNU make. Some non-GNU makes now break this redirection. For example, if you include a-j
option in your build command one of them adds a-J
toMAKEFLAGS
that GNU make rejects. In future releases, we're likely to drop the redirection entirely.

bup-config(5)
has been added, and mentions that at the momentbup on REMOTE ...
incorrectly reads thepack.packSizeLimit
from theREMOTE
repository. -
bup fsck
no longer requires a repository viaBUP_DIR
,-d
, etc. when paths are provided on the command line.
