**1.0.2**
- A warning on the admin page and in `occ backup:status` when background jobs do not run on a
system cron, with how to set one up. Without cron, a backup started with "Back up now" moves on
while the NG Backup page is open, and the database phase of a backup shows its progress
([#13](https://github.com/dillardblom/ng_backup/issues/13)).
- Faster full restores from S3 and SMB, reading ahead as restores over SFTP do since 1.0.0-rc.4.
- `--salvage` for a restore: restore what can be read, skip a file that cannot, and list those at
the end instead of stopping.
- The trash of restore points (most of them moved there by the retention policy) on a tab of its
own, "Bin", instead of below the list of restore points.

On the backlog; know them before you rely on NG Backup:
- **Empty folders do not come back.** A backup only records files, so a folder without files is
not restored. To be fixed in 1.0.3
([#27](https://github.com/dillardblom/ng_backup/issues/27)).
- **Only the data directory is backed up.** Object storage as primary storage (`objectstore` in
`config.php`) is not supported: a backup refuses to start there. Folders mounted through the
External storage app are not in the data directory and are **not included**, without a warning.
