+
+
+SUBTITLE BackupStoreFile

+
+
+SUBTITLE BackupStoreFilename

+SUBTITLE BackupStoreFilenameClear
+
+Derived from BackupStoreFilename, but with the ability to encrypt and decrypt filenames. Client side only.

+SUBTITLE BackupClientFileAttributes

+Also has a static function to generate filename attribute hashes given a struct stat and the filename.
+
+
+SUBTITLE BackupClientRestore
+
+Routines to restore files from the server onto the client filesystem.
+
+
+SUBTITLE BackupClientCryptoKeys
+
+This reads the key material from disc, and sets up the crypto for storing files, attributes and directories.
