In my testing an hot to write up I made myself of borg
backup, I found something confusing.

I backed up three file and restored them (somewhere else).
The sha256sum matched the originals but the du's did not.
What am I missing?

I'm guessing that the backup program doesn't handle sparse files.

The checksum will match because the empty space is zeroed either way.


Thank you!

My read is that if the check sum matches, the file is perfect.
But, I wanted to double check in case I was missing something.
