Main changes
Only very small code and documentation fixes, hopefully really the last fix release of the stable branch 2.2, before the development effort for v2.4 starts.
Detailed release notes are at the top of the changelog. As always, consider especially the changes marked with CHG
as they might impact your workflow.
Install
The installation, described in details in the read me, has the quick version:
- Linux, trust on your distro to provide the latest version of rdiff-backup "soon-ish" (or copr/PPA)
- Windows, download the asset
rdiff-backup-2.2.4.win32/64exe.zip
from the tagged release and unpack it somewhere in yourPATH
. - Any supported Platform, and a few unsupported like BSD and MacOSX, use
pip install rdiff-backup
(or download and install the proper asset from the tagged release). - in all cases, you might want to have a look at the migration guide.
