Package CedarBackup2
Implements local and remote backups to CD-R/CD-RW media.
Cedar Backup is a Python package that supports backups of files on
local and remote hosts to CD-R or CD-RW media over a secure network
connection. Cedar Backup also includes extensions that understand how to
back up MySQL databases and Subversion repositories, and it can be easily
extended to support other data sources, as well.
The package is focused around weekly backups to a single disc, with
the expectation that the disc will be changed or overwritten at the
beginning of each week. If your hardware is new enough, Cedar Backup can
write multisession discs, allowing you to add to a disc in a daily
fashion. Directories are backed up using tar and may be compressed using
gzip or bzip2.
