[0.4.1] - 2026-10-01

Snapshots now hold everything a full restore (0.5.0) needs.

Changed

  • Snapshots keep POSIX ACLs and extended attributes, including file capabilities (for example
    on ping). rsync gets -A -X --numeric-ids. Hard links between files (-H) are still not
    kept, as in Timeshift.
  • info.json gets one more entry at the end, "apsis-rsync-flags". Timeshift ignores it.
    Snapshots without it (Timeshift's, and Apsis 0.4.0 and older) keep working; they are the
    older format, made without ACLs and extended attributes.
  • The first snapshot after the upgrade copies again the few files that have ACLs or extended
    attributes, instead of linking them to the previous snapshot. Later snapshots link as before.
