Can you elaborate on this, please?
OK, say you want to restore file A from some time ago...
Without fully understanding this, would it be possible, if the
repository is inside an LVM logical volume (mine will be, as it so
happens :-) ), to create a snapshot and then restore from that, while
the original backup proceeds on the original volume? Or would the
snapshot also be locked/unusable, whether for an rdiff-backup restore or
for other processes? (I want to replicate my rdiff-backup server
repositories to an offsite machine, and my plan is to have a cron job
which creates an LVM snapshot and then uses rsync to synchronise the
remote data, but again this activity might overlap with ongoing backups.)
