> ---------------------------
> Fixed issues in Checkpoint/Restart:
> * The --name backupname" option was added to allow the
>  user to separate one archive from another.  If not
>  specified, the default is an MD5 hash of the target
>  URL, which should suffice for most uses.
>
> * The archive_dir (cache) is now stored in a standard
>  location, defaulting to ~/.cache/duplicity.  See
>  http://standards.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/latest/
>
> * The interaction between the --archive-dir option and
>  the --name option allows for four possible results
>  for the location of the archive dir.
>    + neither specified (default)
>        ~/.cache/duplicity/hash-of-url
>    + --archive-dir=~/arch, no --name
>        ~/arch/hash-of-url
>    + no --archive-dir, --name=foo
>        ~/.cache/duplicity/foo
>    + --archive-dir=~/arch, --name=foo
>        ~/arch/foo
>
> * duplicity will now copy needed metadata from the
>  remote store to the local cache as needed.  This
>  means that the first use after upgraded from 0.5.x
>  will have the metadata copied to the local archive
>  dir in order to sync both.
>
> * cleanup will now work correctly with the archive
>  dir and separates the local from the remote files.
>
> Bugs fixed this release:
> * 388034     Unable to backup
> * 378940     python2-6 issue / UTF-8 charset / Ubuntu 9.04
> * 379386     Fix list-current-files w/ missing archive dir
> * 387102     Asynchronous upload not working properly
> * 387218     Make scp/ssh into sftp-only backend
> * 388992     List of Orphaned Files Growing
> * 392905     NoneType object has no attribute 'startswith'
> * 393372     Error creating directory
