Resolve project backups

PostThu Jun 28, 2018 2:25 am

Since the Cache_clip and .gallery scratch folders lack spaces, the default location for "resolve project backups" should contain underscores instead of spaces by default. Yes, it's easily changeable, but it should really be underscores by default.

Underscores make life easy since you don't need escape characters or spaces if scripting backups or accessing files in bash.

Also, should the Resolve Project backup option be a global resolve setting instead of a user setting? This is something that can easily be disabled and inadvertently changed with another user importing their settings. This way large shops can deploy their config files with the backup enabled, thus enabling another backup on top of a postgres dump.
