(pseudo) incremental backup with different exclude lists using hardlinks and rsync
6fd22b6416
The interval definition section was down to just before the maximum backup check. This makes the code more friendly to automatic interval selection. Auto interval selection needs to have ddir defined first and it is best if it is done after delete_incomplete. This change accomplishes that while still placing it before the maximum backup check which needs to know the interval. |

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ccollect.sh, Nico Schottelius, 2005-12-06 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ccollect backups (local or remote) data to local or remote destinations. You can retrieve the latest version of ccollect at [0]. ccollect was inspired by rsnapshot [1], which has some problems: - configuration parameters has to be TAB seperated - you can not specify per source exclude lists - no per source pre/post execution support - no parallel execution - does unecessary moving of backup directories - I didn't like the configuration at all, so I used the cconfig style [2]. Please use tools/report_success.sh to report success, if you are successfully using ccollect. Have a look at doc/HACKING, if you plan to change ccollect.
