- #357: Add "break-lock" action for removing any repository and cache locks leftover from Borg
aborting. - #360: To prevent Borg hangs, unconditionally delete stale named pipes before dumping databases.
- #587: When database hooks are enabled, auto-exclude special files from a "create" action to
prevent Borg from hanging. You can override/prevent this behavior by explicitly setting the
"read_special" option to true. - #587: Warn when ignoring a configured "read_special" value of false, as true is needed when
database hooks are enabled. - #589: Update sample systemd service file to allow system "idle" (e.g. a video monitor turning
off) while borgmatic is running. - #590: Fix for potential data loss (data not getting backed up) when the "patterns_from" option
was used with "source_directories" (or the "~/.borgmatic" path existed, which got injected into
"source_directories" implicitly). The fix is for borgmatic to convert "source_directories" into
patterns whenever "patterns_from" is used, working around a Borg bug:
borgbackup/borg#6994 - #590: In "borgmatic create --list" output, display which files get excluded from the backup due
to patterns or excludes. - #591: Add support for Borg 2's "--match-archives" flag. This replaces "--glob-archives", which
borgmatic now treats as an alias for "--match-archives". But note that the two flags have
slightly different syntax. See the Borg 2 changelog for more information:
https://borgbackup.readthedocs.io/en/2.0.0b3/changes.html#version-2-0-0b3-2022-10-02 - Fix for "borgmatic --archive latest" not finding the latest archive when a verbosity is set.
