Hi there,
The TODO says:
Multiple backups launched within the same second clobber each other's
logs/filenames
Likewise, the comment for current_time() says:
# Return current time in ctime format if normal
# in YYYYMMDDHHMM.SS format if 'numeric' is given
In fact, for stock 1_2_1, the second is omitted from e.g. file names,
and so the problem from the TODO is really that all backups launched
within the same minute have the same names.
Here is a patch so it will behave as documented. Alternatively, we
should patch current_time()'s comment and the comment in the TODO. (Less
preferred)
Peter
