I have a backup job set up to back up among other things several
Mercurial repositories.
Yesterday, I accidentally overwrote one of the "hgrc" files, so I wanted
to restore it from a backup, but then I discovered that the backup
apparently contained none of the "hgrc" files from any of the
repositories, even though the other content (most of it at least) of the
directory was in the backup.
When I decided to look into it a bit more today, I found that the new
"hgrc" file I had created as a replacement for the one I accidentally
overwrote had now been included in the nightly backup, even though no
copies of the previous versions had been backed up. Also, a new
repository that was created yesterday had its "hgrc" included in the
backup as well. Every other repository created before yesterday were
missing their "hgrc" files.
On further examination, I also discovered that some repository
directories were missing entirely from the backup, and attempting to
restore one of the repositories reveals that lots of files are missing
from within it as well.
The directory structure is like this:
/home/source/hg/repos/ - Contains all repositories - some of these are
included in the backup (except "hgrc") and some were missing entirely
from the backup
Bacula is currently configured to back up "/etc", "/var/lib/mysql" and
"/home/source".
A full backup was run initially, and incremental backups run nightly.
The operating system is Ubuntu 9.04.
What could be causing this problem?
