Description
As I mentioned in MDEV-15713, some people seem to think that the --stream option can be used like:
mariabackup --backup --stream=xbstream --user=root > backup.xbstream
|
cat backup.xbstream | mariabackup --prepare --stream=xbstream
|
The proper method to use it seems to be more like this:
mariabackup --backup --stream=xbstream --user=root > backup.xbstream
|
mbstream -x < backup.xbstream
|
mariabackup --prepare --target-dir=./
|
Some users think that mariabackup should have a way to extract the files from the mbstream archive itself without making the user go through the extra step.
Is that feasible and/or desirable?
