Using bup
---------
+ - Initialize the default BUP_DIR:
+
+ bup init
+
- Try making a local backup as a tar file:
tar -cvf - /etc | bup split -n local-etc -vv
- There is no support for ACLs. If/when some entrprising person
fixes this, adjust t/compare-trees.
+ - In t/test.sh, two tests have been disabled. These tests check to
+ see that repeated saves produce identical trees and that an
+ intervening index doesn't change the SHA1. Apparently Cygwin has
+ some unusual behaviors with respect to access times (that probably
+ warrant further investigation). Possibly related:
