Singular: Ben Escoto is pretty much the sole developer.

Two answers: you could just try it and find out. If you did that, then you
would KNOW the answer, but as it is I will tell you. Yes. Now, do you want
to believe me and trust all your data to rdiff-backup, or do you want to
test it?

Bit tongue in cheek, but it would have been quicker and more trustworthy to
test it than to ask here.

Good luck!
