However, SafeKeep uses rdiff-backup under the covers, it is just we
have spent a lot of time trying to optimise the options that we pass to
rdiff-backup.
I guess I can scratch that off my todo list, then. I find it astounding
that anyone would build a new tool around a product that has been unsupported
for over 7 years now.
Mostly because the alternative to rdiff-backup are worst. Even if rdiff-backup
has some bugs, is old and stagnant, it's more robust then many other backup
tool for Linux. We did our homework here and rdiff-backup was the best tool for
our needs.
Those are exactly the reasons that I continue to use it, despite its faults.
