Restic 0.11.0 was released today! For downloading the new release and to see a more detailed list of important changes, please head over to GitHub. If you already have restic (0.9.4 or later), you can use the self-update command to automatically download and verify the new release.

This new release contains a highly anticipated feature on Windows: being able to automatically create a Volume Shadow Copy (VSS) using restic backup --use-fs-snapshot. We thought that this feature warrants a new release, just a few weeks after restic 0.10.0 was released. The code was contributed by user fgma, thank you very much!

As always, thanks for reporting any issues you encounter! Or just write a post in the forum.
