Description-en: Back up LDAP database in an Git repository
ldap-git-backup (creates and) updates a Git repository which contains the
current LDIF dump of an LDAP directory. Given that writes are rare in an LDAP
directory and confined to a few entries for each write Git will store the
entire history of an LDAP directory in a space efficient way.
.
By default the backups are done with slapcat from OpenLDAP but can be done
with any command that dumps the current contents of an LDAP directory in LDIF
format.
