Here’s an afterthought that just hit me: |
| 10 |
there should actually be no point in archiving the cache at all. If you had |
| 11 |
a disaster and do a full restore from borg, the old cache data becomes |
| 12 |
invalid anyways, because the files’ inodes will now be different. AFAIK, |
| 13 |
inodes are one way of detecting file changes. Different inode → file must be |
| 14 |
different → rehash. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
(Unless `borg extract` updates the borg cache for files it restores, which I |
| 17 |
doubt because the destination path is arbitrary.) |
