| Summary : Convenient and transparent local/remote incremental mirror/backup
|
Description :
rdiff-backup backs up one directory to another, possibly over a network.
The target directory ends up a copy of the source directory, but extra reverse
diffs are stored in a special subdirectory of that target directory, so you
can still recover files lost some time ago.
The idea is to combine the best features of a mirror and an incremental
backup. rdiff-backup also preserves subdirectories, hard links, dev files,
permissions, uid/gid ownership, and modification times. Also, rdiff-backup can
operate in a bandwidth efficient manner over a pipe, like rsync. Thus you can
use rdiff-backup and ssh to securely back a hard drive up to a remote
location, and only the differences will be transmitted.
Finally, rdiff-backup is easy to use and settings have sensical defaults.
