borg
Deduplicating backup tool. Creates local or remote backups that are mountable as filesystems. More information: https://borgbackup.readthedocs.io/en/stable/usage/general.html.
- Initialize a (local) repository:
borg init {{path/to/repo_directory}}
- Backup a directory into the repository, creating an archive called "Monday":
borg create --progress {{path/to/repo_directory}}::{{Monday}} {{path/to/source_directory}}
- List all archives in a repository:
borg list {{path/to/repo_directory}}
- Extract a specific directory from the "Monday" archive in a remote repository, excluding all
*.ext
files:borg extract {{user}}@{{host}}:{{path/to/repo_directory}}::{{Monday}} {{path/to/target_directory}} --exclude '{{*.ext}}'
- Prune a repository by deleting all archives older than 7 days, listing changes:
borg prune --keep-within {{7d}} --list {{path/to/repo_directory}}
- Mount a repository as a FUSE filesystem:
borg mount {{path/to/repo_directory}}::{{Monday}} {{path/to/mountpoint}}
- Display help on creating archives:
borg create --help
