New question #240242 on Duplicity:
https://answers.launchpad.net/duplicity/+question/240242

I wonder why Duplicity is not smart enough not to download old signatures when 
they are irrelevant for the task in hand?

Doing a standard, last backup restore. There is a full backup made few days ago 
and a couple of relevant incremental changes.

Instead of downloading last duplicity-full file and it's increments, duplicity 
starts to pull all signatures since a year ago!
WHY? As they are totally irrelevant for the task requested.

I know I can clean them up, but this is not what I want to do as they are kept 
in case point in time recovery is needed.

Hasn't the authors thought this simple behaviour or is there a reason it 
downloads all these old signatures?
