AutoArchive is a simple utility to help create backups more
|
||
|
|
easily. The idea of the program is that all essential information for
|
||
|
|
creating a single backup---such as list of directories that should be
|
||
|
|
archived, the archive name, etc.---is stored in a single file -- the
|
||
|
|
*archive specification file*. It can use 'tar' for creating archives,
|
||
|
|
it has a command line interface and supports incremental backups.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Archive specification files, also called ".aa files" are normally
|
||
|
|
stored in a predefined location from where they are processed by the
|
||
|
|
"aa" command which results to creating of a corresponding *backup* for
|
||
|
|
each.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Command "autoarchive" is alias for "aa"; these commands are
|
||
|
|
equivalent.
