[volunteergrid2-l] tahoe backup: how to create new timestamped directory

[Marco Tedaldi]

Hi Eric

Mi Backup has finished just recently. With success. And it finished
again with success today.
But anyway. How should tahoe backup know when it is finished? I can (and
I had to) backup all the sub directories as single backup jobs one after
another and just at the end upload the parent dir. At least this is how
I understand it.

As far as I see it, I should be able to see the files as soon as a
directory is finished. Sadly, I could not really find anything about
restoring in the documentation :-(

best regards

Marco
