sql backup file pattern #3

Closed theodorosploumis closed 8 years ago

theodorosploumis commented 8 years ago

A question for the db backups.

Do you know if there is any issue with unix and other host servers when using files with the ":" symbol?

Would it be better to use this pattern (see the format characters from http://php.net/manual/en/function.date.php)?

Allowed characters is a file system characteristic-limitation, unix and ext4 has no limitations except 2 characters "/", "\0"
