Cedar Backup is a software package designed to manage system backups for a pool of local and remote machines. Cedar Backup understands how to back up filesystem data as well as MySQL and PostgreSQL databases and Subversion repositories. It can also be easily extended to support other kinds of data sources. Cedar Backup is focused around weekly backups to a single CD or DVD disc. It supports multisession discs, allowing you to add incremental data to a disc on a daily basis. Cedar Backup also provides a Python library of backup-related functionality. License: GNU General Public License (GPL) Changes:
Several users recently experienced unit test failures, which were ultimately traced to imprecise file age (utime) behavior on some platforms. This release makes the unit tests less susceptible to this problem, and adds diagnostic information to the test output for help in debugging. A new --diagnostics command line switch was also added.
