Hello,
Archive of incremental backups (only delta) has not been discussed in a long
time. One of the proposed option was to create a tarball of pc/host/BackupNum
however this requires some gymnastics to correctly interpret the paths. Has
anyone come up with an elegant solution to this problem? I had successfully
modified BackupPC_tarCreate to only write files based on mtime of file and a
timedelta. By adding 'next if($hdr->{mtime} < $TimeDelta);' in TarWriteFile
function. The TimeDelta is simply the time stamp of last full.
If there was a way to know which file is new in an incremental backup, then we
can use remaining code as is.
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Tarak
