The backup built command strings and handed them to shell=True, so four interpolated values per dump - user, password, container, database - were each a way out of the command. validate_database covered one of them since the previous commit; now there is nothing to cover: every command is an argv list, and a value can only ever be an argument.
execute_to_file absorbs the atomic dump write. The shell redirect into <file>.tmp and the separate mv process become a Python file handle and os.replace, and a failing dump deletes its partial file instead of leaving it. PGPASSWORD moves out of the command string into the child's environment, where a process listing does not show it.
docker exec is built in one place, docker_exec_argv; db.py's three hand-built copies and the probe use it. The dead docker_volume_exists goes - never called, and the restore side owns the living twin. The rsync quoting in --link-dest falls away: inside an argv it would have become part of the path.
The snapshot module's injected runner changes type with it, which the three e2e drivers implement - the first conversion missed them, btrfs ran with no arguments, and the e2e caught it. Marked breaking for that contract: any external runner injected into volume_snapshot must now accept a list.

ruff was never wired into this repository: no target, no CI step, no pin.
It reported 45 findings across sources and tests, so nothing enforced
what the codebase already mostly followed.
Adds `make ruff` (check + format --check), `make ruff-fix`, and `make
lint` as its alias, and makes `make test` run lint as a fourth parallel
spur. The CI workflow calls `make test`, so it is covered there too. The
linter is pinned in a `lint` extra: a ruff minor bump changes which rules
fire, and with the suite gating on a clean run an unpinned linter would
fail it on an unrelated day.
The 45 findings are fixed rather than configured away. Three needed a
decision instead of the mechanical fix:
- The generation timestamp keeps its local wall clock (DTZ005 waived).
Generations sort by that name, and UTC would order new ones before the
existing ones wherever the offset is positive - "newest generation" is
what every restore path selects on.
- The per-volume `copy` closure now binds volume_name and vol_dir as
default arguments (B023). It only worked because it is called inside
the same iteration.
- The two CLI top-level handlers keep their blind except (BLE001
waived): turning any failure into exit 1 is what a CLI boundary is
for. The two in run.py did not need it and were narrowed to what they
actually catch.
Also drops the comments that restate the code: the section banners in
restore/__main__.py, the filename repeated as line 1 of nine test files,
step narration above the statement it narrates, and a block in app.py
documenting parameters that had moved to another module. What names a
trip-wire stays - the snapshot destination rule, the mysql-binary
absence in MariaDB 11 images, the session-scoped FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS, the
spooled temp file for multi-GB dumps, and the negative control that
loses its discriminating power if it ever passes.

Backing up a live volume with rsync copies a moving target: a database
written to mid-copy lands on disk in a state no engine ever committed.
Stopping the container avoids that at the cost of downtime.
A snapshot removes both. `--snapshot {btrfs,zfs}` with `--snapshot-subject`
freezes the docker root once per run, and every volume copy is then read
from that frozen tree while the containers keep serving. A restore of such
a copy is an ordinary crash recovery, which every supported engine performs
on its own at startup.
An unsupported filesystem or an unknown snapshot kind fails loudly rather
than degrading to a live copy, since a silent fallback would return exactly
the torn backup the mode exists to prevent. `--shutdown` is rejected
alongside `--snapshot` instead of being ignored: under a snapshot no
container is ever stopped, so accepting the flag would promise downtime
semantics the run does not deliver.
Copies out of a snapshot skip rsync's --checksum verification. The source
is immutable for the lifetime of the copy, so size-and-mtime cannot race,
and dropping the second full read roughly halves the I/O per volume.
backup/app.py grew past what one module could carry and is split into
layout, policy and dumps along the lines it already had internally.
Tests: unit coverage for the new snapshot, layout, policy, volume and cli
units; e2e cases drive real btrfs, zfs and ext4 filesystems on loop devices
in a privileged container, including a MariaDB that is written to across
the snapshot and must recover from the restored copy without losing a
committed row. CI installs zfs and sets E2E_REQUIRE_FILESYSTEMS so a
missing kernel module fails the build instead of silently skipping a
filesystem.
