Re: cross-platform backup tool Fwd: [rdiff-backup/rdiff-backup] Pre-release v2.1.2b2 - 2nd beta v2.1.2b2 just fixing Windows

Thanks Eric.

https://github.com/rdiff-backup/rdiff-backup/releases/download/v2.1.2b2/rdiff-backup-2.1.2b2.win64exe.zip is working for for me on Windows 10, but I did encounter one slight surprise.

I've been running rdiff-backup 2.0.5 (from Powershell) to backup to a CIFS/SMB share on my NAS server mounted to my Windows machine.  I access it using the path \\nas4free\finance-backup\Finance.rdiff-backup.  For example:

rdiff-backup-2.0.5\rdiff-backup.exe --list-changed-since 1B \\nas4free\finance-backup\Finance.rdiff-backup

When I try to do the equivalent using 2.12b2 it doesn't recognize the backup repository.  For example:

rdiff-backup-2.1.2b2-64\rdiff-backup.exe list files --changed-since 1B \\nas4free\finance-backup\Finance.rdiff-backup
ERROR: Path '/nas4free/finance-backup/Finance.rdiff-backup' couldn't be identified as being within an existing backup repository
ERROR: Action list failed on step check

However if I add an extra "\" at the beginning of the path it seems happy.  For example:

rdiff-backup-2.1.2b2-64\rdiff-backup.exe list files --changed-since 1B \\\nas4free\finance-backup\Finance.rdiff-backup

Is the need for the extra "\" in 2.12b2 intentional?
