@ -15,10 +15,14 @@ data remotely, using [restic](https://github.com/restic/restic) backup client.
Rest Server requires Go 1.7 or higher to build. The only tested compiler is the official Go compiler. Building server
with gccgo may work, but is not supported.
The required version of restic backup client to use with rest-server is
[v0.6.1](https://github.com/restic/restic/releases/tag/v0.6.1) or higher, due to some
[changes](https://github.com/restic/restic/commit/1a538509d0232f1a532266e07da509875fe9e0d6) in the REST backend API and
performance [improvements](https://github.com/restic/restic/commit/04b262d8f10ba9eacde041734c08f806c4685e7f).
The required version of restic backup client to use with Rest Server is
[v0.7.1](https://github.com/restic/restic/releases/tag/v0.7.1) or higher.
If you have a local repository created with an older version of restic client, which you would now like to serve via
Rest Server, you need to first create missing subdirectories in the data directory. Run this simple one-liner in the
repository directory:
```for i in {0..255}; do mkdir -p $(printf "data/%02x" $i); done```
