tahoe backup ~ work:backups
This command performs a full versioned backup of every file and directory
underneath your "~" home directory, placing a read-only timestamped snapshot
in e.g. work:backups/Archives/2009-02-06_04:00:05Z/ (note that the timestamp
is in UTC, hence the "Z" suffix), and a link to the latest snapshot in
work:backups/Latest/ . This command will use a small SQLite database known
as the "backupdb", stored in ~/.tahoe/private/backupdb.sqlite, to remember
which local files have been backed up already, and will avoid uploading
files that have already been backed up. It compares timestamps and filesizes
when making this comparison. The "tahoe backup" command also shares
directories with the previous backup when nothing has changed, to run faster
and to reduce the number of directories created.
