This is very useful and cool addition. Any reason why there is no "delete/forget snapshot" command? |

Thanks for the feedback @kapitainsky
The reason is, it is just not yet implemented ;-) Are you thinking about a possibility to manually "mark" snapshots for removal and then perform the removing? This can actually be added very quickly. I'd also like to allow manual running a "forget" which would then do the marking according to the forget policy. But it's all just about implementing things which help users. So your feedback is very appreciated, I'll implement snapshot removal with high priority! |

About removing snapshots - I just implemented this (was pretty easy), see #1143.
Actually should work as if you give the destination to the
Do you mean a delay until the "loading index.." and "loading snapshots" progress pop-ups are coming? In this case it could be a remote repository and the time to connect to it. But yes, we may have to improve the UX here, thanks for the feedback! 👍 |

rustic crashed during restore - it can happen. Not big deal. But what happens in interactive mode is that now it prints some control chars forever... CTRL-C does not help. It returns to prompt but keeps printing.... I have to kill terminal window to stop it:) |

Small UI improvement suggestion. leaving interactive mode after hitting ESC - maybe it would be wise to ask for confirmation? For large repos reading index can be quite long so accidental exit (very easy now) is painful when app has to be started again. |

is this the same behavior in non-interactive mode, i.e. does it also take 10-12s until the
is shown? Or is the 10-12s an interactive-only thing? |

Hi all!
As I added and enhanced rustics interactive mode, I'd like to announce the first things here. Hope to get some feedback on it.
What are requirements for rustic interactive mode?
The interactive mode runs in your standard terminal (it is a TUI) and is built-in in the rustic binaries.
Where can I get a rustic binary with interactive mode?
The latest nightly builds already contain the interactive mode.
The next rustic release will contain it too, of course.
How do I start the rustic interactive mode?
Currently, the only way to get interactive is by running
rustic snapshots -i
.In future, other commands will get an
-i
option to directly jump into the interactive mode, if wanted.Which functionalities are currently available interactively?
-> Snapshots view
-> Editing of tags/labels/description/delete protection
-> Snapshot dir view (+ start restore from this view)
