borgbackup: 1.1.10 → 1.1.11

Version 1.1.11 (2020-03-08)

Compatibility notes:

    When upgrading from borg 1.0.x to 1.1.x, please note:
        read all the compatibility notes for 1.1.0*, starting from 1.1.0b1.
        borg upgrade: you do not need to and you also should not run it.
        borg might ask some security-related questions once after upgrading. You can answer them either manually or via environment variable. One known case is if you use unencrypted repositories, then it will ask about a unknown unencrypted repository one time.
        your first backup with 1.1.x might be significantly slower (it might completely read, chunk, hash a lot files) - this is due to the --files-cache mode change (and happens every time you change mode). You can avoid the one-time slowdown by using the pre-1.1.0rc4-compatible mode (but that is less safe for detecting changed files than the default). See the --files-cache docs for details.
    1.1.11 removes WSL autodetection (Windows 10 Subsystem for Linux). If WSL still has a problem with sync_file_range, you need to set BORG_WORKAROUNDS=basesyncfile in the borg process environment to work around the WSL issue.

Fixes:

    fixed potential index corruption / data loss issue due to bug in hashindex_set, #4829 Please read and follow the more detailled notes close to the top of this document.
    upgrade bundled xxhash to 0.7.3, #4891 0.7.2 is the minimum requirement for correct operations on ARMv6 in non-fixup mode, where unaligned memory accesses cause bus errors. 0.7.3 adds some speedups and libxxhash 0.7.3 even has a pkg-config file now.
