A restic client written in rust

Today, I’m announcing rustic 0.4.4. I am very proud that rustic in meanwhile got more than 300 stars in github - thanks for you all giving me motivation by this!

Changes worth mentioning are:

  • many bug fixes
  • local backend can have hooks, e.g. to generate par2 files, see How to create par2 parity files for a Restic repository - #12 by alexweiss
  • diff and restore now handle single file targets correctly, i.e. you can do rustic diff <snap>:/path/to/file localfile or rustic restore <snap>:/path/to/file /my/other/filename.
  • warm-up options are now part of the repo configuration and can also be configured in the config file
