=head1 NAME

Brackup::DigestCache - cache digests of file and chunk contents

=head1 DESCRIPTION

The Brackup DigestCache caches the digests (currently SHA1) of files
and file chunks, to prevent untouched files from needing to be re-read
on subsequent, iterative backups.

The digest cache is I<purely> a cache.  It has no important data in it,
so don't worry about losing it.  Worst case if you lose it: subsequent
backups take longer while the digest cache is re-built.

=head1 DETAILS

=head2 File format

While designed to be abstract, the only supported digest cache format at
the moment is an SQLite database, stored in a single file.  The schema
is created automatically as needed... no database maintenance is required.

=head2 File location

The SQLite file is stored in either the location specified in a
L<Brackup::Root>'s [SOURCE] declaration in ~/.brackup.conf, as:

  [SOURCE:home]
  path = /home/bradfitz/
  # be explicit if you want:
  digestdb_file = /var/cache/brackup-brad/digest-cache-bradhome.db

Or, more commonly (and recommended), is to not specify it and accept
the default location, which is ".brackup-digest.db" in the root's
root directory.

  [SOURCE:home]
  path = /home/bradfitz/
  # this is the default:
  # digestdb_file = /home/bradfitz/.brackup-digest.db

=head2 SQLite Schema

This is made automatically for you, but if you want to look around in
it, the schema is:

  CREATE TABLE digest_cache (
       key TEXT PRIMARY KEY,
       value TEXT
  )

=head2 Keys & Values stored in the cache

B<Files digests keys>  (see L<Brackup::File>)

 [rootname]path/to/file.txt:<ctime>,<mtime>,<size>,<inodenum>

B<Chunk digests keys>  (see L<Brackup::PositionedChunk>)

 [rootname]path/to/file.txt:<ctime>,<mtime>,<size>,<inodenum>;o=<offset>;l=<length>

B<Values>

In either case, the values are the digest of the chunk/file, in form:

   sha1:e23c4b5f685e046e7cc50e30e378ab11391e528e
