Hello everybody!

FSVS 1.0.13 is released.

---------------------------------------------------------------------
 FSVS is a complete backup/restore tool for all files in a directory
 tree or whole filesystems, with a subversion repository as the
 backend for data storage.
 You may think of it as some kind of rsync with versioned storage.
---------------------------------------------------------------------

It's somewhat work in progress, in that there are some points which need a
bit more polishing (eg. it compiles on MacOS and FreeBSD now, but does not
fully work), but I'm afraid I won't find time for another release the next
few weeks.


There were a lot of changes.
Two important bugfixes happened:
- remote repositories (eg. via svn+ssh) should now work (again), and
- with a small probability when files were ignored, fsvs would ignore
  the wrong files.

Lots of smaller fixes:
- "fsvs add" now correctly adds the intermediate directories as well, and
- on these added directories the entries are now found again.

User-visible changes:
- "-r" now understands HEAD,
- new command "fsvs info",
- "fsvs help" needs no WAA any more, and
- there's an environment variable "FSVS_WARNINGS" which can be set
  to define the handling of warnings.


You can get fsvs at the usual place; freshmeat
(http://freshmeat.net/projects/fsvs) should shortly show the new version.
For the impatient there's

I would especially like to say "THANK YOU" to the developers and users
which helped me find bugs and resolve them - their patience is outstanding
:-).
Thank you!


I hope you all enjoy this new version; bugs, suggestions, ideas and
similar can be dropped in the mailing lists
   [email protected]
and

Of course patches are welcome, too.


Regards,

Phil
