A reimplementation of the ideas in rsnapshot built with the composibility and simplicity of rsync in-mind. It comes with sane defaults and I have been using this to compliment my rsync-style mirror backups for data that needs incremenetal backup.

Looking for feedback. I'm gearing up for a stable v1 release.

Very neat. I’ll have to give it a shot.

Happy to hear any feedback!

Got pre-built binaries here: https://github.com/thekashifmalik/kbackup/releases and it should be pretty easy to install/build using Go too.

Not surprisingly, KDE already has a backup program named kbackup: https://apps.kde.org/en-gb/kbackup/

oof

Since I'm not at v1 yet, I would consider changing the name if that KDE project is actively maintained.

Since the project was renamed, this is the new homepage: https://rincr.com/
