I run restic backup with “–dry-run” to check if any changes occured and only if there are changes I run restic backup (I do this to avoid having really long lists of snapshots that are identical, this way i can see when changes occured by looking at the snapshot dates). However, last night a backup did run, even so no files changed with this output:
comparing snapshot d97c616d to fd1729f7:
Files: 0 new, 0 removed, 0 changed
Dirs: 0 new, 0 removed
Others: 0 new, 0 removed
Data Blobs: 0 new, 0 removed
Tree Blobs: 2 new, 2 removed
Added: 730 B
Removed: 730 B
Can someone explain what happened here or what would be a better approach to achieve the desired outcome?
Thank you!
