Just skimming through the source, it seems like these are just hardcoded shorthand identifiers so someone debugging the code can tell what it’s doing.

Loooks like HT stands for Hash Target or Hardlink Target:
https://github.com/uroni/urbackup_backend/blob/2dcfdfb1f6ce63cbc490992249c478310c018f80/urbackupserver/server_hash.cpp#L650 => #L650

GT stands for Get Target:
https://github.com/uroni/urbackup_backend/blob/c8286b1848aa8f16cbe130e238035edf0e93d363/urbackupserver/ServerDownloadThread.cpp#L1016 => #L985

PT might stand for prepare table.

that’s all i got!
