Subject: Write the backup descriptor as the very last step in a backup.
X-Git-Url: http://git.vrable.net/?p=cumulus.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=e392d943a0bca2f12186321ae1658b739a5a5dd4

Write the backup descriptor as the very last step in a backup.

For consistency, we should make sure that all segments and other data
needed to reconstruct a backup are written before we write out the
backup descriptor file itself.
