It uses rsync to copy the files to the specified location. +Parameters for the backup such as input files/directories, output location and files or folders to exclude can be specified +in a configuration file (default location $HOME/.config/simple_backup/simple_backup.conf) or directly on the command line. +Parameters specified on the command line will override those in the configuration file. +.SH OPTIONS +.TP +.B \-h, \-\-help +Print a short help message and exit +.TP +.B \-c, \-\-config FILE +Specify the configuration file, useful to specify a different one from the default. +.TP +.B \-i, \-\-input INPUT [INPUT...] +Specify the files and directories to backup. Multiple inputs can be specified, just separate them with a space. +If filenames or paths contain spaces, don't forget to escape them, or to use single or double quotes around them. +.TP +.B \-o, \-\-output DIR +Specify the directory where the files will be copied. The program will automatically create a subdirectory called +\(aqsimple_backup\(aq (if it does not already exist) and inside this directory the actual backup directory (using +the current date and time) +.TP +.B \-e, \-\-exclude FILE|DIR|PATTERN [FILE|...]] +Specify files, directories or patterns to exclude from the backup. Matching files and directories will not be copied. +Multiple elements can be specified, in the same way as for the \-\-input option +.TP +.B \-k, \-\-keep N +Specify how many old backups (so excluding the current one) will be kept. The default behavior is to keep them all +(same as N=\-1) +.TP +.B \-s, \-\-checksums +Same as rsync option \(aq\-\-checksum\(aq, use checksums instead of mod\-time and size to skip files. +.TP +.B \-\-remove\-before\-backup +Remove old backups (if necessary) before creating the new backup. Useful to free some space before performing the backup. +Default behavior is to remove old backups after successfully completing the backup. +.SH CONFIGURATION +An example configuration file is provided at \(aq/etc/simple_backup/simple_backup.conf\(aq. Copy it to the default location +($HOME/.config/simple_backup) and edit it as needed. +.SH SEE ALSO +.BR rsync (1) +.SH AUTHORS +.MT https://github.com/Fuxino +Daniele Fucini +.ME
