pdumpfs is a simple daily backup system similar to Plan9's dumpfs
|
|
which preserves every daily snapshot. pdumpfs is written in Ruby.
|
|
You can access the past snapshots at any time for retrieving a certain
|
|
day's file. Let's backup your home directory with pdumpfs!
|
|
|
|
pdumpfs constructs the snapshot YYYY/MM/DD in the destination
|
|
directory. All source files are copied to the snapshot directory for
|
|
the first time. On and after the second time, pdumpfs copies only
|
|
updated or newly created files and stores unchanged files as hard
|
|
links to the files of the previous day's snapshot for saving a disk
|
|
space.
