pitrery 1.7 released

pitrery 1.7 released
====================

pitrery is a set of Bash scripts to manage PITR backups for PostgreSQL.

pitrery automates Continuous Archiving and Point-in-Time Recovery
(PITR) as much as possible with the following goals:

* Handle only PITR, log-shipping and replication are out of scope
* Be as minimally intrusive as possible for archiving

It is free software licensed under the PostgreSQL License and works
with PostgreSQL versions 8.2 through 9.3.

In version 1.7, the configuration of the compression tools used when
storing backups with tar is now possible. The storage method is also
listed when displaying the details of backups.

Two changes are not backward compatible:

* Removal of the pitr_mgr symbolic link.

* Execution of the post backup hook even if the backup fails after the
pre backup hook has been run.
