Package: borgbackup Version: 1.0.2-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
borgbackup seems to always back up the newest file in the repository, even if it remains unmodified. Usually this is unnoticeable, but introduces a considerable delay when it's a large file. Here A is a 6.3GB sized file that remains unchanged during the whole test process and is B an empty file created just before the second backup takes place.
