rustic 0.10.0 has been released.
Interesting changes are:
- rustic now supports to customize chunking parameters (min/max/avg chunk size) and also fixed-size-chunking, i.e. it implements what I proposed in Add and describe more chunking options in design document by aawsome · Pull Request #5470 · restic/restic · GitHub . Fixed-size-chunking does not only prevent any “chunking attacks” but also increases backup-speed a lot for large file(s) (as the chunker is typically the bottleneck in this case).
- rustic now has telemetry support (for the
backupcommand) - rustic’s interactive mode now supports to diff two snapshots and also can collect summary information for (sub)-trees. This can help to answer questions like "Which files are responsible for the repo size growth?”
