Description: simple backup/snapshot system (common files)
Back In Time is a framework for rsync and cron for the purpose of
taking snapshots and backups of specified folders. It minimizes disk space use
by taking a snapshot only if the directory has been changed, and hard links
for unmodified files if it has. The user can schedule regular backups using
cron.
.
This is the common framework for Back In Time. For a graphical interface,
install backintime-qt.
.
To back up to SSH or encrypted filesystems, install the additional sshfs
or encfs packages.
