you probably already know this but backup-walker is a useful package
for a quick overview and i think there is a more generic one that
allows different backends [one could want git or rsnapshot but idk
which are supported].
in addition to git i use a shell script to compare old and new
versions. it is for if git is not working, i suspect git or magit
corruption [which i definitely do], and other purposes. as a sort of
double check.
i am currently wondering if it is possible to store a copy of files or
shas and times someplace and use them to detect silent [e.g. git-fsck
does not notice] corruption in files or in magit or git or even fs.
but i do not have a clear idea on this. i know there's a program
called bitrot that does one thing for this.
i wonder if you could automate narrowing to specific issues so that
you do not have to wade through large diffs?
is it possible you have hardware issues such as a flaky cable inside your kb?
i'd think other hw issues would be less likely given the specificity
of the format.
[still no guarantee i will notice any replies even if to or cc me :[
but i tryt o check occsionally. gmail filtering !@#$.]
