I'll also check the archives for the next few days.]
I'm considering using duplicity for my backups, and have a couple of
questions.
1) From what I've read, duplicity only supports full backups and
one level of differential backups. Is adding one (or more)
additional levels of differential backups something that
might happen in the near future?
[In case it's not clear what I mean: a level 0 backup is a
full backup, and a level n backup is relative to the last
level n-1 backup.]
2) The documentation says that deletions are stored as zero-length
files in the tar archive. Are they flagged in some way to
differentiate them from zero-length files that haven't been
deleted?
3) In the case of a complete disk failure, what's the recommended
way to do a full restore? Is there a duplicity rescue-disk?
Thanks,
Dan
