borgmatic 1.6.5
released this 2 days ago | 0 commits to since this release
- #553: Fix logging to include the full traceback when Borg experiences an internal error, not just
the first few lines. - #554: Fix all monitoring hooks to warn if the server returns an HTTP 4xx error. This can happen
with Healthchecks, for instance, when using an invalid ping URL. - #555: Fix environment variable plumbing so options like "encryption_passphrase" and
"encryption_passcommand" in one configuration file aren't used for other configuration files.

borgmatic 1.6.3
released this 3 weeks ago | 24 commits to since this release
- #541: Add "borgmatic list --find" flag for searching for files across multiple archives, useful
for hunting down that file you accidentally deleted so you can extract it. See the documentation
for more information:
https://torsion.org/borgmatic/docs/how-to/inspect-your-backups/#searching-for-a-file - #543: Add a monitoring hook for sending push notifications via ntfy. See the documentation for
more information: https://torsion.org/borgmatic/docs/how-to/monitor-your-backups/#ntfy-hook - Fix Bash completion script to no longer alter your shell's settings (complain about unset
variables or error on pipe failures). - Deprecate "borgmatic list --successful" flag, as listing only non-checkpoint (successful)
archives is now the default in newer versions of Borg.

borgmatic 1.6.2
released this 1 month ago | 39 commits to since this release
- #523: Reduce the default consistency check frequency and support configuring the frequency
independently for each check. Also add "borgmatic check --force" flag to ignore configured

https://torsion.org/borgmatic/docs/how-to/deal-with-very-large-backups/#check-frequency - #536: Fix generate-borgmatic-config to support more complex schema changes like the new
Healthchecks configuration options when the "--source" flag is used. - #538: Add support for "borgmatic borg debug" command.
- #539: Add "generate-borgmatic-config --overwrite" flag to replace an existing destination file.

documentation for more information:

borgmatic 1.6.1
released this 1 month ago | 59 commits to since this release
- #294: Add Healthchecks monitoring hook "ping_body_limit" option to configure how many bytes of
logs to send to the Healthchecks server. - #402: Remove the error when "archive_name_format" is specified but a retention prefix isn't.
- #420: Warn when an unsupported variable is used in a hook command.
- #439: Change connection failures for monitoring hooks (Healthchecks, Cronitor, PagerDuty, and
Cronhub) to be warnings instead of errors. This way, the monitoring system failing does not block
backups. - #460: Add Healthchecks monitoring hook "send_logs" option to enable/disable sending borgmatic
logs to the Healthchecks server. - #525: Add Healthchecks monitoring hook "states" option to only enable pinging for particular
monitoring states (start, finish, fail). - #528: Improve the error message when a configuration override contains an invalid value.
- #531: BREAKING: When deep merging common configuration, merge colliding list values by appending
them. Previously, one list replaced the other. - #532: When a configuration include is a relative path, load it from either the current working
directory or from the directory containing the file doing the including. Previously, only the
working directory was used. - Add a randomized delay to the sample systemd timer to spread out the load on a server.
- Change the configuration format for borgmatic monitoring hooks (Healthchecks, Cronitor,
PagerDuty, and Cronhub) to specify the ping URL / integration key as a named option. The intent
is to support additional options (some in this release). This change is backwards-compatible. - Add emojis to documentation table of contents to make it easier to find particular how-to and
reference guides at a glance.

borgmatic 1.6.0
released this 2 months ago | 88 commits to since this release
- #381: BREAKING: Greatly simplify configuration file reuse by deep merging when including common
configuration. See the documentation for more information:
https://torsion.org/borgmatic/docs/how-to/make-per-application-backups/#include-merging - #473: BREAKING: Instead of executing "before" command hooks before all borgmatic actions run (and
"after" hooks after), execute these hooks right before/after the corresponding action. E.g.,
"before_check" now runs immediately before the "check" action. This better supports running
timing-sensitive tasks like pausing containers. Side effect: before/after command hooks now run
once for each configured repository instead of once per configuration file. Additionally, the
"repositories" interpolated variable has been changed to "repository", containing the path to the
current repository for the hook. See the documentation for more information:
https://torsion.org/borgmatic/docs/how-to/add-preparation-and-cleanup-steps-to-backups/ - #513: Add mention of sudo's "secure_path" option to borgmatic installation documentation.
- #515: Fix "borgmatic borg key ..." to pass parameters to Borg in the correct order.
- #516: Fix handling of TERM signal to exit borgmatic, not just forward the signal to Borg.
- #517: Fix borgmatic exit code (so it's zero) when initial Borg calls fail but later retries
succeed. - Change Healthchecks logs truncation size from 10k bytes to 100k bytes, corresponding to that
same change on Healthchecks.io.

borgmatic 1.5.24
released this 4 months ago | 101 commits to since this release
- #431: Add "working_directory" option to support source directories with relative paths.
- #444: When loading a configuration file that is unreadable due to file permissions, warn instead
of erroring. This supports running borgmatic as a non-root user with configuration in ~/.config
even if there is an unreadable global configuration file in /etc. - #469: Add "repositories" context to "before_" and "after_" command action hooks. See the
documentation for more information:
https://torsion.org/borgmatic/docs/how-to/add-preparation-and-cleanup-steps-to-backups/ - #486: Fix handling of "patterns_from" and "exclude_from" options to error instead of warning when
referencing unreadable files and "create" action is run. - #507: Fix Borg usage error in the "compact" action when running "borgmatic --dry-run". Now, skip
"compact" entirely during a dry run.

borgmatic 1.5.23
released this 5 months ago | 118 commits to since this release
- #394: Compact repository segments and free space with new "borgmatic compact" action. Borg 1.2+
only. Also run "compact" by default when no actions are specified, as "prune" in Borg 1.2 no
longer frees up space unless "compact" is run. - #394: When using the "atime", "bsd_flags", "numeric_owner", or "remote_rate_limit" options,
tailor the flags passed to Borg depending on the Borg version. - #480, #482: Fix traceback when a YAML validation error occurs.
