Bug Description
Hello,
the example config file has the following lines included:
# for cat:
#compressarg= # ie. nothing
Since there is config/script syntax that allows for comments at the end of normal, active lines, when I tried to do an uncompressed tar I just removed the first # from the line:
compressarg= # ie. nothing
which resulted in my Cronjob trying to send me a rather big uncompressed tar file instead of writing one to the backup directory. :)
I'd suggest to move the notice to the line before, so it could look like
# for cat, nothing
#compressarg=
Sorry for providing no patch, don't have bzr at hand.
Probably it would also be a good idea to check for unescaped # in command lines before running them. :)
Regards
Wolfgang Karall
