Er.. Rsnapshot?

  Or restic.

  I've been using rsnapshot on /home for about 8 years. I run it once an hour in a cronjob. After using NetApp file servers with .snapshot dirs it is great to have something that kind of emulates it.

  Rsnapshot is great. Super simple and reliable. I keep seeing new time machine-esque backup tools and feel like they are re-inventing the wheel in a more complicated way. Some complexity is acceptable sure, say to encrypt backups for remote storage. But the rsync hardlink approach used by rsnapshot is super rugged and just works for a majority of workloads.
