rht 07808e35be parse_lsb_release: Use /etc/os-release instead of /etc/lsb-release. 2019-08-28 17:53:27 -07:00
Shubham Padia 31cedbc9b8 backup: Make `--output` an optional argument instead of a positional one.
Fixes #12150.
Previously the `output` argument was positional, while the docs described
the arguments as optional in the form of `--output=...`.

Shubham Padia 984d3f2f0e backup: Add option `--skip-db` to skip database backup.
This may be relevant for organizations that use a corporate remote
postgres server and just want to backup their configuration.

Anders Kaseorg d03b8308a5 backup: Use tar --transform to arrange the tarball instead of symlinks.
This allows tar to print the real paths in error messages if something
goes wrong.

Anders Kaseorg c6e60ebf0e backup: Set cwd while running pg_dump.
This avoids a spurious permission error inside the Postgres
`resolve_symlinks` function if we don’t have access to the current
working directory (e.g. we’re running with cwd /root inside `su
zulip`).

While we’re here, add a defensive `--` argument.
