> I just noticed that disk-full scenarios also returns with exit code 0, so the backup logs are a bit misleading on the final result. Hu, that shouldn't be the...

I've thought about this today, and I think we should improve the error handling: Restic should continue if possible (e.g. when just a single file could not be read), but...

Hey, thanks for raising this issue. The `--no-lock` option is only for supported operations, like `check`. Any operation that may add data (such as `backup`) does not support it, that's...

@gebi "it works" means restic does not return an error when you specify `--no-lock`, but for the `backup` operation it will still create a lock file. The `--no-lock` switch is...

I've decided to not add support for `--no-lock` for backup, at least not for now. If you want this behavior (and it feels to me you know what you're doing),...

@gebi I can understand your use case and what you're trying to do. In my opinion, just adding the small patch to allow `--no-lock` during backup has the potential to...

I assume you mean `restic backup --no-lock`? This would work for `backup`, but you'll end up with **many** lock files over time... For other operations (such as `snapshots`) changing the...

Hm. Maybe we can really do that: Not exit with an error if the lock file could not be removed. That'd work in most cases, especially in the ones you're...
