Dir::Rocknroll is a light incremental backup tool based on rsync.
rocknroll backups a remote directories tree srcdir in dstdir onto the local host. For this backup, it manages a set of archives, named tag.1, tag.2, etc. Using the link-dest option of rsync, it keeps only the difference between the different archives.
A dstdir can contain several tagged sequences of archive. For example, a dstdir can contain 2 archive sets named daily.1 daily.2 daily.3 daily.4 daily.5 daily.6 daily.7 and week.1 week.2 week.3 week.4.
Before a dstdir can be able to store an archive set, it must be formatted with the --init option.
