-backupzeta

This new switch, to be used in the backup command, generates checksums on the fly, without reading them at the end of the .zpaq file creation, saving a lot of time, especially on slow disk drives like HDDs. The generated checksums are quite robust ("almost" XXHASH64 and CRC-32). In the future, it will also support encrypted volumes #139

Improved build compatibility on BSD operating systems

  • OpenBSD
  • NetBSD
  • DragonFly

Set the creation date of .zpaq archives to 1/1/1980

so it is easy to quickly identify those that were not written completely #138

New hash algorithms ZETA and ZETAENC.

Can be selected with -zeta and -zetaenc. You can find the explanation here #139 (comment)

-destination

With the new switch, it is possible to load a series of lines (from a text file) as if they were multiple -to options. The explanation is here #136 (comment)

-nodelete

This switch does not mark files as deleted if they are not found during the path scan. It is used for bulk manipulation of the file list. The explanation is here #136 (comment)

-salt

This switch forces an empty salt (i.e., 32 bytes of zeros). It is something you should NOT normally use. It serves as a development mechanism (i.e., it is something that is useful for ME, not for YOU).

-hdd

With this switch, you use the computer's memory (including virtual memory, i.e., the swap file) to sequentially write the extracted data. It is useful if you have a lot of RAM or an SSD system drive and want to extract to an HDD. In this case, everything will first be decompressed into RAM and then written to the HDD, without any seeks (head movement) in the output. It is not suitable for gigantic files, but for medium sizes, it can halve the extraction time.
