1.4
Moved to using Restic's inbuilt filesystem shadow copy creation (VSS).
Breaking Change
local.exclude
file changes that previously referenced the resticVSS
directory will need to be changed to C:\
or the relevant root drive letter.
Other enhancements
- Future snapshot grouping (and cleanup) will be better since the root-level folders included in the backup won't change (instead, the script targets the root drive letter instead of a list of folders under the drive letter).
- Added the ability to set prune parameters via
.\config.ps1
, and defaulted the settings to--group-by host
to clean up the aforementioned snapshot grouping & pruning. - Updated the
windows.exclude
to include additional directories (most notably, the Recycle Bin is no longer backed up)
