 This release prevents busy loops on rsync exit code 13. It ignores
 any snapshot directory with creation time >= completion time. It
 opens /dev/null for reading and writing when executing rsync. It shows
 human readable snapshot creation duration when listing snapshots. It
 restarts the rsync process if it returned with exit code 13.
