The button is there for people who start BIT before plugging-in the external drive. This button force to refresh the GUI. I agree, "Refresh snapshots" is a better name.
** Changed in: backintime Status: Confirmed => Fix Committed -- Update snapshot button causes confusion https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/493558 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Back In Time Team, which is subscribed to Back In Time. Status in Back In Time: Fix Committed Bug description: I'm running Ubuntu 9.10 / Back in Time 0.9.26. When I select "Take Snapshot" a snapshot is generated as expected. When I select "Update Snapshot" nothing happens even though I know several tens of files have changed since the initial snapshot. I checked the backup destination drive and verified the files have not been updated. I do not have an automated backup scheduled. Thanks!
