IMHO, "No increment is older than ...." is normal behavior and should
not cause a warning, especially since nonzero status codes are
considered abnormal termination by most shells (even the Python docs
<https://docs.python.org/3/library/sys.html#sys.exit> mention this),
and can cause backup scripts to terminate.
yes that's the behavior of version 2.0.5. with rdiff-backup 2.2 I see
man page mention:
RETURN CODES
2 - WARNING
any kind of unexpected behavior without complete failure
but I don't know what condition meet the description. when
rdiff-backup is working there are many things will happen like:
"file can not open", "fifo files too long", "xattr can not backup". will
these become "return code 2" in the future? currently they are still
"return code 0".
should I say "return code 2" means the job is still finished but with
some kind of warnings?
