Restic 0.17.2 Released

We are happy to announce the release of restic 0.17.2!

This patch release is mainly to fix a problem on Windows where files with the type irregular could mistakenly be included in snapshots, causing error messages. Once having upgraded to restic 0.17.2, this can be fixed for existing snapshots by running restic repair snapshots --forget.

To download the new release and to see a more detailed list of important changes, please head over to GitHub. If you already have restic (0.9.4 or later), you can use the self-update command to automatically download and verify the new release.

As always, thanks for reporting any issues you encounter! To get help or provide feedback, please write a post in the forum.
