I found a strange error while playing around with the latest dev commit, with Restic cross compiled from Linux to Windows/AMD64. What is the proper way to report it, while the code is still in development?
I run a few git bisect
and found 5cff6e08 to be the first commit that gives me this error (my debug executable is called “resticx.exe
”):
> mkdir \mydir\mydata
> resticx --repo \mydir\myrepo init

enter password again:
created restic repository 19264c5839 at \mydir\myrepo
Please note that knowledge of your password is required to access
the repository. Losing your password means that your data is
irrecoverably lost.
> resticx --repo \mydir\myrepo backup \mydir\mydata
debug log file d:\debug.log

Fatal: unable to save snapshot: CreateFile \\?\C:\Users\<myname>\mydir: The system cannot find the file specified.
If necessary, I can provide more details and I have the debug log file.
Thank you!
