* Removed pg_backrest_remote and added the functionality to pg_backrest as remote command.
* Added file and directory syncs to the File object for additional safety during backup/restore and archiving. Suggested by Andres Freund.
* Support for Perl 5.10.1 and OpenSSH 5.3 which are default for CentOS/RHEL 6. Found by Eric Radman.
* Improved error message when backup is run without archive_command set and without --no-archive-check specified. Found by Eric Radman.
* Moved version number out of the VERSION file to Version.pm to better support packaging. Suggested by Michael Renner.
* Replaced IPC::System::Simple and Net::OpenSSH with IPC::Open3 to eliminate CPAN dependency for multiple distros.
Replaced IPC::System::Simple and Net::OpenSSH with IPC::Open3 to eliminate CPAN dependency for multiple distros. Using open3 will also be used for local processes so it make sense to switch now.
Also stopped replacing FORMAT number which explains the large number of test log changes. FORMAT should change very rarely and cause test log failures when it does.
More separation of the protocol and remote layers than was done in issue #106.
Settings are passed to the remote via command-line parameters rather than in the protocol.
* IMPORTANT NOTE: This flag day release breaks compatibility with older versions of PgBackRest. The manifest format, on-disk structure, and the binary names have all changed. You must create a new repository to hold backups for this version of PgBackRest and keep your older repository for a time in case you need to do a restore. The `pg_backrest.conf` file has not changed but you'll need to change any references to `pg_backrest.pl` in cron (or elsewhere) to `pg_backrest` (without the `.pl` extension).
* Add info command.
* More efficient file ordering for backup. Files are copied in descending size order so a single thread does not end up copying a large file at the end. This had already been implemented for restore.
* Logging now uses unbuffered output. This should make log files that are being written by multiple threads less chaotic. Suggested by Michael Renner.
* Experimental support for PostgreSQL 9.5. This may break when the control version or WAL magic changes but will be updated in each release.
* Includes updating the manifest to format 4. It turns out the manifest and .info files were not very good for providing information. A format update was required anyway so worked through the backlog of changes that would require a format change.
* Multiple database versions are now supported in the archive. Does't actually work yet but the structure should be good.
* Tests use more constants now that test logs can catch name regressions.
* Fixed an issue where archive-copy would fail on an incr/diff backup when hardlink=n. In this case the pg_xlog path does not already exist and must be created. Reported by Michael Renner
* Allow duplicate WAL segments to be archived when the checksum matches. This is necessary for some recovery scenarios.
* Allow comments/disabling in pg_backrest.conf using #. Suggested by Michael Renner.
* Better logging before pg_start_backup() to make it clear when the backup is waiting on a checkpoint. Suggested by Michael Renner.
* Various command behavior, help and logging fixes. Reported by Michael Renner.
* Fixed an issue in async archiving where archive-push was not properly returning 0 when archive-max-mb was reached and moved the async check after transfer to avoid having to remove the stop file twice. Also added unit tests for this case and improved error messages to make it clearer to the user what went wrong. Reported by Michael Renner.
* Fixed a locking issue that could allow multiple operations of the same type against a single stanza. This appeared to be benign in terms of data integrity but caused spurious errors while archiving and could lead to errors in backup/restore. Reported by Michael Renner.
* Replaced JSON module with JSON::PP which ships with core Perl.
ASSERTs still dump stack traces to the console and file in all cases. ERRORs only dump stack traces to the file when the file log level is DEBUG or TRACE.
