Output of restic version

0.16.0

What should restic do differently? Which functionality do you think we should add?

Repository.LoadBlob currently does not retry downloads which returned corrupted pack files. I guess we can add a retry there, similar to what’s already implemented for index files and similar.

Without such a retry, restic may run into problems with certain backends as in https://forum.restic.net/t/is-a-jottacloud-repo-reliable-seeking-user-input/6390/12 .

Follow-up to #3521
