Re: [Question #139985]: Configuration of file name format possible?

 

Question #139985 on Duplicity changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/duplicity/+question/139985

    Status: Open => Answered

edso proposed the following answer:
As duplicity does not know how many files it is going to create, there
is no elegant solution for this. We could introduce a switch, but I
doubt that a mere display sorting issue is worth the trouble. Especially
as you might end up with, let's say 2000 parts and defined three leading
zeroes, something like this

001
002
...
999
1000
1001
