DESCRIPTION
bup is a program for making backups of your files using the git file format.

However, once a backup set is created, it can still be accessed using git tools.
The individual bup subcommands appear in their own man pages.
GLOBAL OPTIONS --version
print bup's version number. Equivalent to bup-version(1)-d, --bup-dir=BUP_DIR
