The number of methods required by the ICompression interface is now reduce and all handling of path conversion and text encoding is now done in the CompressionWrapper class. This should make it easier to implement a new compression module, and reduce the number of errors that occur because of filename/encoding issues.
This commit also contains a fix for reporting a sane error message if the compression module is not found/loaded.

Status: Fixed
The problem is that the the file-based backend returns "Directory not found" when asking for the not-yet-mounted folder.
Duplicati assumed that this error means that the folder will be created later, and thus returned an empty list,
as the folder would be empty when created. This means that the retry logic was not used.
Backing up to an empty folder will then result in a full backup being made.
But once the files started uploading, the folder is there and the folder is not created, but it is still a full backup.
This commit changes the logic a bit, so the list operation will not return until successful and a missing folder will be created during the list operation.
This ensures that the backup does not start before there has been a successful listing of the folder. If it fails, there is the normal retry delay, which should be enough to ensure that the folder is re-mounted. There may be warnings in the log, that the auto create failed. I have removed the logic that will auto create the folder during upload, as it should no longer be possible to get to the upload stage without verifying that the folder exists.
I have also changed the logic of the --disable-autocreate-folder option, so default value is "false" if it is a backup, and "true" for any other operation, so simply issuing a "list" or "cleanup" will not create folders (it did not do that before either).

Duplicati now defaults to not upload a backup if nothing has changed.
This is indicated by a light-green check mark in the status window.
The option --upload-unchanged-backups can be set to revert to the previous way of working.

There is now a delete transaction file being written, which should prevent cases where a large number of orphan files are detected.
If a large number of orphan files are detected, this should now be considered a real error.
I chose not to put in the cleanup button, because it would take too long for me to fit it in there, and I would rather focus on getting 2.0 ready, which will have a new UI anyway.

Update issue #484
Status: Fixed
There is now a detection for situations where a manifest is missed, but signature/content files are uploaded.
This should fix all errors with a message like "N volumes found but the manifest indicates X" where N-X <= 2.

Thanks to Livio, this is now fixed and can be toggled with the --allow-sleep command.

Now also stores the filename+size of signature/content files to ensure that the parsed filenames match the expected ones.
The filesize and filenames are used to verify that the remote file is complete, without downloading it.

I have now added a module called http-options which can be used to
configure http options, notably the 100-Expect.
I am unsure if it will break existing installations if I disable
it by default, so it is still enabled but can be disabled by the
switch --disable-expect100-continue.
You can set this option in the GUI under "Advanced options".

This commit includes an option to create an unencrypted verification file.
There is now a check to see if all volumes mentioned in the manifest exists,
before performing backup/restore operations.
This check is also performed on cleanup.
There is now a check that prevents auto-cleanup from removing more than
2 orphan files.
If a delete-older-than or delete-all-but-n-full is interrupted, the leftover
files will not be auto-deleted but must be deleted with the cleanup command,
which allows the user to see what files are delete.

USN is now activated by default on windows, but requires Administrative privileges.
If it fails to activate, it is silently ignored, and normal filesystem enumeration is used.
Set --usn-policy to:
"on" to get a warning if it fails,
"required" to abort the backup if it fails
"off" to disable USN
"auto" to silently ignore a fail

Added the --vss-exclude-writers option.
Update issue #260
Status: Fixed
I have now added a --vss-exclude-writers commandline option.
I had another look at the other supported options, and I consider this the most important.
I made the simplest possible version, so it only supports class guids, not component names
or writer instance ids.
If you need any of the other switches or the component names, please let me know.
I would also be interested in hearing that it actually works (I get no errors, but thats no proof).
You can specify multiple writers with a semicolon: --vss-exclude-writers="{d61d61c8-d73a-4eee-8cdd-f6f9786b7124};{0bada1de-01a9-4625-8278-69e735f39dd2}"
If you need the guids, you can get them with the following command in a command prompt:
vssadmin list writers

Added a find-last-version command to the commandline version,
it takes the same input as a restore operation, so
use --file-to-restore to supply a list of files to search for.

Previously some backends autocreated a missing folder, and some threw an exception.
The new standard is that all backends throw the FolderMissingException on all access (except delete).
This means that the Test() and List() methods are now the same for all stock backends.
Third-party applications that use the backends should implement custom logic to auto-create the folders,
when the FolderMissingException is encountered.
Duplicati auto-creates missing folders, but this can be toggled through the new flag --disable-autocreate-folders.
In case the auto-create fails to detect a missing folder, there is now a "create-folder" action in the commandline version.
Update issue #102
Status: Fixed
The IBackend_v2 interface has the CreateFolder and Test methods.
The CreateFolder is exposed to the commandline interface with the action create-folder.

Added name support in GUI and commandline version.
When restoring from commandline, subfolders will now be named like the source folders, if only one source folder is given.
When restoring from GUI, the names will be suggested like in the commandline.
It is no longer required that the unused folders exists when restoring a multi-source backup from the GUI.
Added size tooltips to the restore GUI window with the list of backup chains.
Now correctly deletes old signature cache files, even if they use the old names.
