Re: [rdiff-backup-users] Filename too long

[dean gaudet]

rdiff-backup requires a significant amount of extra space to fit its 
filenames... at least until 1.1.x where ben has made it able to deal with 
"File name too long" errors more gracefully... however i think based on 
the bug reports i've seen here i'd hesitate to use 1.1.x.
