FSVS

Details

FSVS is a complete backup/restore/versioning tool for all files in a directory tree or whole filesystems, with a subversion repository as the backend.
FSVS stands for “Fast System VerSioning”, “Full System VerSioning” or “File System VerSioning”.
You may think of it as some kind of tar or rsync with versioned storage.
Here are some key features of "FSVS":
· initialize itself for operation (define target URL)
· commit to this URL (backup), with meta-data support (owner, group, mode, devices, symlinks)
· show the status, ie. which entries have changed, and what was changed (data or meta-data)
· diff single files local/remote/remote
· revert single files to the repository version
· update from this URL (restore), with meta-data support
· use advanced ignore patterns, eg. to ignore all virtual filesystems like /proc, /sys, /dev (if devfs), and so on. PCRE-expressions and recursive ignore patterns are possible, too.
· updating from more than one URL (overlayed, like unionfs)
· currently testing: automatically detecting copied/moved files
· re-synchronize with the repository (for recovery)
· FSVS understands some special properties for backup handling, eg. to define transparent en/decryption;
Requirements:
· rsync 2.6.7 and perl to run the self-test-scripts
· subversion-1.4
· apr libraries
· PCRE (perl compatible regular expressions) libraries and header files
· GDBM library and header files
· gcc to compile
