Hey guys, I took quite a bunch of evening hours, however it is now quite stable and functioning quite as it should, but I managed to change the snapshot folder into a new location -> backintime/machine/user-profile_id (I did not like the user/profile_id/, as the id is often only 1 number). The old snapshots stay were they are. The old folder I added as an extra other snapshot folder. This way we do not move around old snapshots, and this way I can start implementing another feature to be able to select other snapshots folders (e.g. from other machines, or users (root)). These folders are not used to add new snapshots, and are not considered for smart-remove. This also means that the snapshots that are there at the moment are not removed any longer. I might have to make a kind of update solution for that. At the moment I give the snapshots a random tag, associated with user and a profile, to have unique snapshots_id's in the future, what is necessary to fetch the paths to these snapshots.
The branch is available: snapshot-location. I still need to change the kde application, that might still have a lot of struggles with the profile_id's (in a lot of cases the lack of profile_id's suddenly give problems when you use the profile_id in the folder :-)). What do you think about it? Cheers, Bart
