Subject: [pbs-devel] [PATCH v2 proxmox-backup 4/5] fix #3847: client: treat minus sign as stdin
Date: Fri, 19 Dec 2025 17:18:31 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251219161850.244154-5-r.obkircher@proxmox.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251219161850.244154-1-r.obkircher@proxmox.com>

Treat "-" as an alias for "/dev/stdin". If there is an actual file
with that name it can still be read via "./-".
