Description-en: simple backup/snapshot system (graphical interface)
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 graphical interface for Back In Time.
