  Saf – simple, reliable, rsync-based, battle tested, rounded backup2023 · github.com · ▲89

  I had this backup code working reliably for years, using local file system, vps/dedicated server, or remote storage for backup, then I finally get time to wrap README, iron few missing switches and publish. Should be production ready and reliable, so it could be useful to others. Contributors are welcome.
