DAR is a command-line backup and archiving tool that uses selective compression (not compressing already compressed files), strong encryption, may split an archive in different files of given size and provides on-fly hashing, supports differential backup with or without binary delta, ftp and sftp protocols to remote cloud storage Archive internal's catalog, allows very quick restoration even a single file from a huge, eventually sliced, compressed, encrypted archive eventually located on a remote cloud storage, by only reading/fetching the necessary data to perform the operation. Dar saves *all* UNIX inode types, takes care of hard links, sparse files as well as Extended Attributes (MacOS X file forks, Linux ACL, SELinux tags, user attributes) and some Filesystem Specific Attributes (Linux ext2/3/4, Mac OS X HFS+) more details at: http://dar.linux.free.fr/doc/Features.html

bKappa is a 2009 experiment in crude but transparent and cross-platform incremental backup. bKappa backups are simple directory trees and lists of files. They are easy to browse and examine and do not use symbolic or hard links. It is crude in the sense that bKappa only tracks files by name, not by content. This means it cannot detect that a file has been renamed and makes full copies of renamed and partially modified files. It generates standalone restore scripts for the POSIX shell and PowerShell. While it saw real use, bKappa isn't tested enough to be your main backup software. ...

snap2 is a powerful rsync-based backup program (shell script) for Linux desktop PCs. It has a user-friendly GUI. It creates automatically-rotating 'snapshot' backups, or a mirror backup. It can also be run non-interactively, via cron.

Chronicle is a set of BASH shell scripts that use rsync to back up data to a remote host. Snapshots are created and rotated using hard links to minimize storage requirements.

Java backup tool providing file level data deduplication: If a file is stored, it is never stored a second time unless the file's content changes. Instead, a reference to the stored data is created. This holds true even if the file is moved or renamed.

A snapshot based backup system. If snapshots aren't available hard links, sym links or copies are used instead. The backed up tree is always directly usable and does not need a backup client to decipher.

rsnapshot is a filesystem snapshot utility based on rsync. rsnapshot makes it easy to make periodic snapshots of local machines, and remote machines over ssh. The code uses hard links whenever possible, to greatly reduce the disk space required.

Sith'Ari is an disk backup solution, based on hard links. Daily snapshots are built on the previous, then updated. Only modified files are stored. Sith'Ari Backup stands for : Synched Incremental Time Historical Archiver Rapid Imager Backup

Utilizes common unix utilities to provide a simple backup solution. Like Apple's Time Machine, sbak uses hard-links to minimize disk usage. Reduces data transfer by using compressed rsync transfers. Web interface and subscription service coming soon.

A perl script for doing backups to disk on another computer. Support for incremental backup via use of rsync's capability of creating hard links to files that have already been backed up and haven't changed. No special tools needed for restores.
