I'm still seeing the behavior described below in v2.1.3b3. Is the need
for the extra "\" intentional? If not I can report an issue.

Thanks Eric.
https://github.com/rdiff-backup/rdiff-backup/releases/download/v2.1.2b2/rdiff-backup-2.1.2b2.win64exe.zip
is working for for me on Windows 10, but I did encounter one slight surprise.
I've been running rdiff-backup 2.0.5 (from Powershell) to backup to a CIFS/SMB
share on my NAS server mounted to my Windows machine. I access it using the
path \\nas4free\finance-backup\Finance.rdiff-backup. For example:
rdiff-backup-2.0.5\rdiff-backup.exe --list-changed-since 1B
\\nas4free\finance-backup\Finance.rdiff-backup
When I try to do the equivalent using 2.12b2 it doesn't recognize the backup
repository. For example:
rdiff-backup-2.1.2b2-64\rdiff-backup.exe list files --changed-since 1B
\\nas4free\finance-backup\Finance.rdiff-backup
ERROR: Path '/nas4free/finance-backup/Finance.rdiff-backup' couldn't be
identified as being within an existing backup repository
ERROR: Action list failed on step check
However if I add an extra "\" at the beginning of the path it seems happy. For
example:
rdiff-backup-2.1.2b2-64\rdiff-backup.exe list files --changed-since 1B
\\\nas4free\finance-backup\Finance.rdiff-backup
Is the need for the extra "\" in 2.12b2 intentional?
