You now can get the values of some useful storeBackup options in precommand and postcommand scripts. A new option "move" is available in storeBackupMergeIsolatedBackup.pl. It might give you a better performance when configuring storeBackup to protect against ransomware.
Storage locations of lock files have changed.
See Chapter "What's new" and ChangeLog for other changes.

new Features:

- eg. when traveling, you can make backup without access to the master backup and integrate these backups later into the central one
- backups can be replicated (automated) so you can generate copies of your backups eg. on another external disk
