I use encfs. Hopefully you are interested in linux, because encfs is difficult
to use on windows or mac.
If you use encfs for a solution like this, it would be similar to this:
You have an encrypted directory, which is encfs mounted plaintext.
You specify the plaintext directory as the rdiff-backup destination. And then
you sync the encrypted directory online.
This does consume disk space, as multiple copies (encrypted and non-encrypted)
get stored on your local disk. But it works.
