Hello,
This is an alpha release so that many people can test new features. All
changes are documented in the changelog
<https://github.com/rdiff-backup/rdiff-backup/blob/v2.1.1a0/CHANGELOG.adoc#new-in-v2-1-1a0>,
but despite 12 fixes and 3 smaller new features, the main changes are
under the hood, heavily restructuring the code to simplify it and
introduce concepts of plugins. We've also converted all documentation
from markdown to asciidoc <https://asciidoctor.org/> because it's
standardized
<https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/asciidoc.asciidoc-lang>, has more
features and looks nicer once rendered.
Please use this release to test and report issues, especially regarding:
* usage in client/server in combination with version v2.0.5 of
rdiff-backup
* usage under Windows (and MacOS/X)
It's an alpha version, everything might change, disappear and/or fail,
do *NOT* get in love with a specific feature and do *NOT* use this
version for production.
The installation procedure hasn't changed much and is available from the
readme
<https://github.com/rdiff-backup/rdiff-backup/blob/v2.1.1a0/README.adoc>
(alpha packages might or might not be offered by the maintainers, in
doubt install via |pip install rdiff-backup==2.1.1a0| under Linux and
use the attached binaries under Windows). You might want to use the
side-by-side installation
<https://github.com/rdiff-backup/rdiff-backup/blob/v2.1.1a0/docs/migration.adoc#side-by-side-installation>
to safeguard your productive installation.
