Comment (by daira):

 Hmm, it looks from this code in the method {{{BackupDB_v2.check_file}}} in
 [source:src/allmydata/scripts/backupdb.py], as though the {{{--ignore-
 timestamps}}} option of {{{tahoe backup}}} causes existing db entries to
 be completely ignored, rather than only ignoring timestamps.

 Perhaps we just need to rename {{{--ignore-timestamps}}} or document it
 better?
