Cedar Backup manages backups for a pool of local and remote machines. Backups can be written to CD or DVD. A variety of backup sources (filesystem, database repositories, revision control repositories, etc.) are supported. In mid-2015, development on Cedar Backup moved from SourceForge to BitBucket, and revision control changed from Subversion to Mercurial. Then, in mid-2019, development moved to GitHub. Historical releases and the original Subversion repository will stay here at SourceForge indefinitely. Please see: https://github.com/pronovic/cedar-backup3

Chestnut package manager is a utility to handle executables and resource files in a transparent, platform independent and relocatable way. Its concept is similar to Apple bundles and Java archives.

Cloud Export is a tool to automatically extract your data from web applications and save it to your local file system for backup purposes, but more extensive than Google Takeout. Plans are based on http://www.dataliberation.org.

Cozy is a backup solution for Linux. It aims to be similar to Apple's Time Machine, with the difference that Cozy recognizes duplicate files and incremental backups are realized through binary diffs to save space.

Custom Burner allows to burn CDs or DVDs on many computers, managing them from a central server.

This program converts a dvd into a dvd image. Could do the same for cdroms or other media like it. Will not copy protected disks. Features one click copying with a progress bar and dvd tray eject/load. Written in python with wxPython.

dvd copy does what the name implies, it copies the main feature of a dvd to the hard drive then shrinks it down to fit on a 4.7GB dvd then burns it to a dvd. This is good for making backup copies of dvds you legally own.

DataFinder is a data management client developed in Python that primarily targets the management of scientific technical data. The system is able to handle large amounts of data and can be easily integrated in existing working environments.

This project provides an open-source setup for IPFS Kubo (public and private pinning) combined with IPFS Cluster replication, designed for reliable, production-ready decentralized storage. It is suitable for developers, infrastructure operators, and Web3 projects that need predictable IPFS availability without maintaining complex node infrastructure. The system supports multiple retention plans for IPFS Kubo pinning, allowing users to choose how long data remains pinned, with transparent pay-per-GB prepaid pricing. Retention options include short-term and long-term storage, making it suitable for websites, datasets, backups, and distributed applications. For higher availability, IPFS Cluster replication is available with 1, 2, or 3 replicas, enabling redundancy across nodes and improved resilience against node failure. Bandwidth usage is tracked separately, with included allowances and predictable overage pricing.https://github.com/branislav1989/ipfs-kubo-private-public-ipfs-cluste

DebGUI is a frontend to facilitate and accelerate the creation of Debian packages from source code (and learn in the proccess)

The Debian's Archive Browser will ease the browsing and searching of package in the _huge_ Debian's Packages list. Written in python, no release yet. keep in touch.

Easy Backup is a simple backup application written in Python that can backup selected files and save them into tar files. It also backs up the ownership and permissions of the file.

EasyBackup is an easy to use back up tool for programmers who work on several projects and would like to backup to CD, DVD or to an FTP location. Easybackup compresses on the fly so required disk space during backup is as low as possible.

EPT (Emacs Package Tool) is full userspace package managing tool for GNU/Emacs.

This program, based on the 7zip-full package on Debian systems, encrypts your files or folders along with their content names. It does this by entering a specified command and parameters into the 7zip tool using a Python script. https://github.com/shampuan/encrypt-express

A set of tools (command line and GUI) to provide a complete digital photo workflow for Unixes. EXIF headers are used as the central information repository, so users may change their software at any time without loosing any data.

Framework in Python for platform-independent file management with a console based toolkit (zigo) and a GUI platform (zago). Use existing handlers and your own handlers together to walk through directory trees, select files, and process them.

File Sift groups files and directories to fit within a specified size threshold. This is useful when backing up to media of fixed size (ie cd-r media), and helps maximize the use of space on that media. Provides both graphical and command line interfac

Content Based File level Data Backup in Python. This is a utility to backup your files. It can do full and incremental backups. It will take a directory as input, and will back up the files in that folder and all sub-folders to the backup destination directory. It can compress each file individually while backing-up. Mirrors the source directory structure under the target directory. Creates 1 archive file for each source file. Even if the backup/restore program or backup database is not available or lost, the backup files and structure can still be recovered. Huge plus for reliability. Uses a SQL database to manage backup file information. The files are managed through their checksum (SHA256). See wiki page for additional information: https://sourceforge.net/p/filebasedbackup/wiki/Home/ The project is work in progress. Main backup script is functional, but i have taken a break from adding features to the main program to build a GUI in Tkinter.
