I've been using rdiff-backup for a while, but today was the first time I
tried using the --compare-hash directive. 

First I get tons of these messages...

        Warning: Metadata file has no digest for <file>, unable to
compare.

That's scary enough by itself. But then at the end it says...

        No changes found.  Directory matches archive data.

So if it can't compare, why would it say the directory matches? 

And what is the problem with the hash in the first place?
