== Description
|
||
|
|
||
|
WARNING: This command does not involve "Bit Backup" repository. Instead it is intended for additional control of integrity of files.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This command is intended for Bit Rot Detection (to keep your files forever).
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Current hash sum of files is tracked in file bitbackupindex.
|
||
|
* Previous hash sum of files is tracked in file bitbackupindexold.
|
||
|
* Files bitbackupindex and bitbackupindexold are compared.
|
||
|
* If the current and previous last modification date of a file are the same, but the calculated checksum is different, then a bit rot was detected.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Found bit rots can be probably repaired, but only in case, you used commands like init and create
