CRITICAL FIXES:
- Encryption detection false positive (IsBackupEncrypted returned true for ALL files)
- 12 cmd.Wait() deadlocks fixed with channel-based context handling
- TUI timeout bugs: 60s->10min for safety checks, 15s->60s for DB listing
- diagnose.go timeouts: 60s->5min for tar/pg_restore operations
- Panic recovery added to parallel backup/restore goroutines
- Variable shadowing fix in restore/engine.go
These bugs caused pg_dump backups to fail through TUI for months.
Features:
- restore diagnose command for backup file analysis
- Deep COPY block verification for truncated dump detection
- PGDMP signature and gzip integrity validation
- Detailed error reports with --save-debug-log flag
- Ring buffer stderr capture (prevents OOM on 2M+ errors)
- Error classification with actionable recommendations
TUI Enhancements:
- Automatic dump validity safety check before restore
- Press 'd' in archive browser to diagnose backups
- Press 'd' in restore preview for debug log toggle
- Debug logs saved to /tmp on failure when enabled
Documentation:
- Updated README with diagnose command and examples
- Updated CHANGELOG with full feature list
- Updated restore preview screenshots
Why wrap external tools when you can BE the tool?
New physical backup engines:
• MySQL Clone Plugin - native 8.0.17+ physical backup
• Filesystem Snapshots - LVM/ZFS/Btrfs orchestration
• Binlog Streaming - continuous backup with seconds RPO
• Parallel Cloud Upload - stream directly to S3, skip local disk
Smart engine selection automatically picks the optimal strategy based on:
- MySQL version and edition
- Available filesystem features
- Database size
- Cloud connectivity
Zero external dependencies. Single binary. Enterprise capabilities.
