Re: cross-platform backup tool Survey about rdiff-backup-statistics

[Eric Zolf]

Hi,

thanks to everybody for the good feedback. Based on it, I've decided to 
not take any immediate action (aka remove the command alltogether), but 
rather merge it into an action plug-in as described in the RFE:

https://github.com/rdiff-backup/rdiff-backup/issues/772

Feel free to comment further on the issue.

Thanks, Eric

PS: Similarly for rdiff-backup-delete, check
