Duplicity incrementally backs up files and directory by encrypting
|
||
|
|
tar-format volumes with GnuPG and uploading them to a remote (or local)
|
||
|
|
file server. Currently local, ftp, ssh/scp, rsync, WebDAV, WebDAVs, HSi
|
||
|
|
and Amazon S3 backends are available. Because duplicity uses librsync,
|
||
|
|
the incremental archives are space efficient and only record the parts
|
||
|
|
of files that have changed since the last backup. Currently duplicity
|
||
|
|
supports deleted files, full unix permissions, directories, symbolic
|
||
|
|
links, fifos, etc., but not hard links.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The duplicity package also includes the rdiffdir utility. Rdiffdir is
|
||
|
|
an extension of librsync's rdiff to directories - it can be used to
|
||
|
|
produce signatures and deltas of directories as well as regular files.
|
||
|
|
These signatures and deltas are in GNU tar format.
