A backup uploads its blobs before the manifest that lists them, and the
process lock is per user per machine, so a prune from another host or
user sharing the destination deleted a running backup's blobs; that
backup still reported success and could not be restored.
Prune now deletes an unreferenced blob only once it is older than the new
config key prune_grace_period (default 24h), and reports how many it kept
(blobs_too_new under --json). The storage listing now carries each
object's modification time. remote nuke is unchanged. The README says what
the lock covers and that a shared destination relies on the grace period
or needs one prefix per host.
Model: opus-5-5
The rclone backend wrote each object straight to its key, so killing an
upload to a local or sftp remote left a truncated object there that the
next backup trusted.
On every remote with a server-side move, an object is now written under
a name ending in `.partial` and moved onto its key with rclone's
operations.Move, which removes an object already at the key first;
drive, dropbox and others will not move onto one. Listings skip
`.partial` names. Rclone's own copy also requires the PartialUploads
flag; this does not, because hdfs shows a file while it is written
without setting it. Remotes without a move are written in place.
Model: opus-5-5
internal/storage, the package that parses store URLs and selects the backend, had no tests.
Adds table-driven tests for URL parsing (each scheme, query parameters, malformed input, unknown scheme, backend type chosen); one shared conformance suite for the Storer interface, run against the file backend in a temp directory and the s3 backend on the in-process harness internal/s3 already uses, so a new backend inherits it; and rclone construction and argument tests using its in-process local backend. A comment records that rclone data operations need a configured remote and are not unit-tested. No production code changed and no defect surfaced.
