NAME

       bup-server - the server side of the bup client-server relationship

SYNOPSIS

       bup server

DESCRIPTION

       bup server  is  the  server  side of a remote bup session.  If you use bup-split(1) or bup-save(1) with the -r option, they will ssh to the
       remote server and run bup server to receive the transmitted objects.

       There is normally no reason to run bup server yourself.

MODES

       smart  In this mode, the server checks each incoming object against the idx files in its repository.  If  any  object  already  exists,	it
	      tells  the  client  about  the  idx file it was found in, allowing the client to download that idx and avoid sending duplicate data.
	      This is bup-server's default mode.

       dumb   In this mode, the server will not check its local index before writing an object.  To avoid writing duplicate  objects,  the  server
	      will tell the client to download all of its .idx files at the start of the session.  This mode is useful on low powered server hard-
	      ware (ie router/slow NAS).

FILES

       $BUP_DIR/bup-dumb-server
	      Activate dumb server mode, as discussed above.  This file is not created by default in new repositories.

NAME

       bup - Backup program using rolling checksums and git file formats

SYNOPSIS

       bup [global options...] <command> [options...]

DESCRIPTION

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

       Unlike  git(1)  itself, bup is optimized for handling huge data sets including individual very large files (such a virtual machine images).
       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
	      use the given BUP_DIR parameter as the bup repository location, instead of reading it from  the  $BUP_DIR  environment  variable	or
	      using the default ~/.bup location.

       bup-fsck(1)
	      Check backup sets for damage and add redundancy information

       bup-ftp(1)
	      Browse backup sets using an ftp-like client

       bup-fuse(1)
	      Mount your backup sets as a filesystem

       bup-help(1)
