Feature request: backup-friendly storage format
Currently Geary stores all messages in a single geary.db
file per account (i believe). I have two accounts with between 5000 and 6000 messages in each (possibly more in subfolders), and my two geary.db
files measure 430M and 1.7G.
Each time i do an incremental backup of my home folder with restic, these entire geary.db
files are copied to the snapshot, taking up space on the backup media and taking time and power too (copying these files takes a significant portion of each backup run).
Would it be possible to use a different storage format that would be more backup-friendly? The messages could be grouped into files by date, for example.
