* Store files in a directory structure like that of the original client.
* Fix 'ERROR: Please use absolute include/exclude paths' when setting paths

create the directory /etc/burp/CA-client.

that only timed backups are allowed. Also add similar 'client_can_list',

* Make an unknown exclude_fs a non-fatal error.
* Add ability to trigger a backup on the server side by placing a file called
'backup' in the client's storage directory.
* Fix bug where block device nodes were not backed up. Add 'read_blockdev'
and 'read_all_blockdevs' options that work the same as the equivalent
fifo options.

notifications only get sent if there were new or changed files.

meant that resume would not start.
* Add 'include_ext' option, which excludes all files unless their names end
in the given extension.
* Fall back to using the client or server name if ssl_peer_cn is unset on the
server or client.
* Don't try to chuser/chgrp in the child if the user/group settings are the
same as the parent (fixes bug where setting user/group in the server
wouldn't work, because it would try to chuser/chgrp twice).
* Windows installer: add comment about poll interval '0' means that the
scheduled job isn't installed.
* Windows installer: don't install the scheduled task when doing an upgrade.
* Unlock the client directory after server_script_post has run instead of
before.

script.

* EFS support on Windows.
* Move to using mingw-w64 for both 32bit and 64bit Windows builds.

types (for example, tmpfs) without generating warnings.
* If recovery method 'resume' is set, but the includes/excludes change,
switch to 'use', then start a new backup.
* In the tests, check to see whether it looks like the server has finished
the backup before moving on, rather than just waiting a set amount of time.

* Remove embedded uthash code. It will need to be installed as a dependency.
For example, in Debian, you might run 'apt-get install uthash-dev'.
* Add Bas van den Dikkenberg's tweaks for getting burp into official Debian
and Ubuntu repositories. Burp is now in debian sid and ubuntu precise.
* Make the server tell the client what extra_comms features it supports, so
that, in future, old servers are more likely to work with new clients.
* Improve 'make clean'.
* Add option to strip off leading path components on restore.
* Fix segfault that was happening on the server when SSL_accept() failed.
* Move burp and bedup to /usr/sbin (you need to check that any cron jobs

produce, and exit.

be backed up, and prints counters, without contacting the server.

* Fix possible segfault when backup directory forward paths don't match.
* Removed working_dir_recovery_method=merge. Use 'resume' instead.
* Add a flexible way of passing new fields from the client to the server so
that clients are less likely to have to upgrade.
2011-11-26 Changes in burp-1.2.5:
* IMPORTANT: Fixed critical path comparison typo bug. If you have been using

* Store windows file attributes in a separate field to the standard unix ones.

* Small bug fixes to the status monitor.
* Fixed working directory recovery bug where it couldn't find the manifest.gz
file due to it being called manifest.gz.tmp.

inherited from bacula. Just call all the functions directly.

disappeared on a client after the initial scan (to get these two bug fixes,
you need to upgrade your clients).

IMPORTANT IF YOU ARE UPGRADING FROM AN OLDER VERSION OF BURP:
a) Your previous backups will no longer work, due to changes in the
manifest files. You will also need to move old backups aside in order to
continue to make new backups.
b) Your old config files will need some fields to do with SSL added to them.
See the man page and the examples in the 'configs' directory for help.
IMPORTANT FOR MY ENCOURAGEMENT AND THE FUTURE OF BURP:
If you have tried burp, I really want to hear from you to find out what
you like about it, what you don't like, what new features you would like,
how you have been using it, whether it has helped you, or anything that
you would like to tell me. I am currently working in the dark!
Changes in burp-1.0.31:
* Large scale rewrites to the main backup process to make it more efficient
and easier to understand.
* Much tidying up of code and splitting into smaller files.
* Removed complicated/flaky compression code from the network stuff. Network
compression will come free with SSL anyway (when it is implemented).
Currently, whole new files are transmitted compressed, file information
and deltas are not.
Changes in burp-1.0.11:
* Fixed Windows restore crash. Windows restores should now work better.
Changes in burp-1.0.10:
* Fixed three major bugs introduced in burp-1.0.9 to do with client/server
communication when doing deltas.
* Make "make install" and the Windows installers not overwrite an existing
config file.
* Support for backup and restore of fifos and nodes.
* KNOWN ISSUE: There seems to be a problem with restoring multiple files
at once to Windows. I am working on this.
Changes in burp-1.0.9:
* Added counters to summarise the files that were backed up or restored.
* Added the ability to have warnings instead of errors always being fatal.
* Prevent restores overwriting existing files, unless the new '-f' option is
given.
* Notice invalid characters in paths on Windows and replace them with
'_'. This also means that you can now restore to alternative directories
(the colon in the drive name no longer gets in the way).
* Added instructions for building the Windows installer.
