# sysutils/bup - The NetBSD Packages Collection

Highly efficient file backup system based on the git packfile format

    bup is a program that backs things up.  bup has a few advantages over other
    backup software:

    It uses a rolling checksum algorithm (similar to rsync) to split large files
    into chunks. The most useful result of this is you can backup huge virtual
    machine (VM) disk images, databases, and XML files incrementally, even though
    they're typically all in one huge file, and not use tons of disk space for
    multiple versions.

    It uses the packfile format from git (the open source version control system),
    so you can access the stored data even if you don't like bup's user interface.

    Unlike git, it writes packfiles directly (instead of having a separate garbage
    collection/repacking stage) so it's fast even with gratuitously huge amounts of
    data. bup's improved index formats also allow you to track far more filenames
    than git (millions) and keep track of far more objects (hundreds or thousands of
    gigabytes).

    Data is "automagically" shared between incremental backups without having to
    know which backup is based on which other one - even if the backups are made
    from two different computers that don't even know about each other. You just
    tell bup to back stuff up, and it saves only the minimum amount of data needed.
