Manent 0.10.18 (Default branch)

Manent is an algorithmically strong backup andarchival program. It features efficient backup toanything that looks like storage. Currently itsupports plain filesystems ("directories"), FTP,and SFTP. Planned are Amazon S3, optical disks,and email (SMTP and IMAP). It can work (makingprogress towards finishing a backup) over a slowand unreliable network. It can offer onlineaccess to the contents of the backup. Backed upstorage is completely encrypted. Backup isincremental, including changed parts of largefiles. Moved, renamed, and duplicate files willnot require additional storage. Several computerscan use the same storage for backup, automaticallysharing data. Both very large and very small filesare supported efficiently. Manent does not rely ontimestamps of the remote system to detect changes.License: GNU General Public License (GPL)Changes:
The status and reporting have been revamped to bemore concise and readable. Accurate estimation ofprogress is printed.Image

svn-fast-backup(1)					      General Commands Manual						svn-fast-backup(1)

NAME
svn-fast-backup - very fast backup for Subversion fsfs repositories. SYNOPSIS
svn-fast-backup [-q] [-k{N|all}] [-f] [-t] [-s] repos_path backup_dir DESCRIPTION
svn-fast-backup uses rsync snapshots for very fast backup of a Subversion fsfs repository at repos_path to backup_dir/repos-rev, the latest revision number in the repository. Multiple fsfs backups share data via hardlinks, so old backups are almost free, since a newer revision of a repository is almost a complete superset of an older revision. This is good for replacing incremental log-dump+restore-style backups because it is just as space-conserving and even faster; there is no inter-backup state (old backups are essentially caches); each backup directory is self-contained. It has the same command-line interface as svn-hot-backup(1) (if you use --force), but only works for fsfs repositories. svn-fast-backup keeps 64 backups by default and deletes backups older than these; this can be adjusted with the -k option. OPTIONS
-h, --help Shows some brief help text. -q, --quiet Quieter-than-usual operation. -k, --keep=N Keep a specified number of backups; the default is to keep 64. -k, --keep=all Do not delete any old backups at all. -f, --force Make a new backup even if one with the current revision exists. -t, --trace Show actions. -s, --simulate Don't perform actions.
