7 bup-init - initialize a bup repository
11 [BUP_DIR=*localpath*] bup init [-r *host*:*path*]
15 `bup init` initializes your local bup repository. You
16 usually don't need to run it unless you have set BUP_DIR
17 explicitly. By default, BUP_DIR is `~/.bup` and will be
18 initialized automatically whenever you run any bup command.
22 -r, --remote=*host*:*path*
23 : Initialize not only the local repository, but also the
24 remote repository given by the *host* and *path*. This is
25 not necessary if you intend to back up to the default
26 location on the server (ie. a blank *path*).
40 Part of the `bup`(1) suite.
