Today I wanted to restore some file
-rw-r--r-- 1 backups backups 1829 2003-08-29 11:42 index.htm
and by mistake I've specified directory as destination not file:
rdiff-backup --force -r 5D index.htm /tmp
Of course some error occurred (which I don't remember - something like ERROR
IsDir). No problem so far... corrected destination and restoring went ok but
rdiff-backup changed permissions on /tmp to 0700!
Of course mysql stopped working because it couldn't create temporary files,
customers started calling and so on :(
Please, add some checking whether destination is file or directory.
