Hi, Actually the TAR tool has a built in backup (with incremental support) system. It creates a file just looking like a mixed of the flist and fprops file. Look at some documentation here : http://www.gnu.org/software/tar/manual/tar.html#Backups. The format of both file are quite the same. - TAR : xxxxx.file_name[separator]xxxxx.file_name[separator] ... where xxxxxx are the properties - Sbackup : - flist : file_name[separator]file_name[separator]file_name[separator].... - fprops : xxxxx.xxxxx.xxxxx..... and it uses the separators to make the correspondences.
The point is to know if there was a special reason for sbackup to use this kind of formating. -- sbackup is very slow when working on many files https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/102577 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
