--full with idevicebackup2 still states Incremental backup mode.

[yoonsikp]

Log shows that idevicebackup2 --full potentially still using incremental backup mode. Is there any way to confirm that a full backup was conducted?

idevicebackup2 backup --full /rust/backups/iphone/

Backup directory is "/rust/backups/iphone/"

You can try inotifywait --monitor --recursive /rust/backups/iphone/ and sudo strace -p $(pgrep idevicebackup2) -e trace=read,write,connect,open to check if it's stuck.

I'm not related to the project development in any way so I might be wrong and the process might be doing something else.

It has a progress bar at the bottom. Can you not just check that it goes to 100%?
