@@ -130,14 +130,17 @@ Backward compatibility for backups is important so that our users are
always able to restore saved data. Therefore restic follows `Semantic
Versioning <https://semver.org>`__ to clearly define which versions are
compatible. The repository and data structures contained therein are
considered the "Public API" in the sense of Semantic Versioning. This
goes for all released versions of restic, this may not be the case for
the master branch.
considered the "Public API" in the sense of Semantic Versioning.
We guarantee backward compatibility of all repositories within one major
version; as long as we do not increment the major version, data can be
read and restored. We strive to be fully backward compatible to all
prior versions.
Once version 1.0.0 is released, we guarantee backward compatibility of
all repositories within one major version; as long as we do not
increment the major version, data can be read and restored. We strive
to be fully backward compatible to all prior versions.
During initial development (versions prior to 1.0.0), maintainers and
developers will do their utmost to keep backwards compatibility and
stability, although there might be breaking changes without increasing
the major version.
