Clean is a program that searches for backup files and such identified by regular expressions in a ~/.cleanrc, and deletes them: possibly interactively with a per-file y/n decision, or in a batch mode. Clean is written in C and targets Unix/POSIX.

ECLiPt Roaster is a graphical frontend for cdrecord, mkisofs written in gnome-python

Peters Backup is a program for backing up your important data files on to diskette, zip drive, fixed disk or CD/RW. It uses an extremely efficient compression algorithm. It keeps track of all versions of your files in full and incremental backups.

IMPORTANT: The project has moved. The latest version can be found at https://github.com/gkiefer/backup2l. backup2l is a lightweight tool for generating, maintaining and restoring backups on a mountable file system. The main design goals are low maintenance effort, efficiency, transparency and robustness.

The Personal Backup Appliance is a VMware virtual appliance that can clone, backup, and restore your hard disk over the network. Our goal is to provide an open-source bare-metal backup and restore utility that is powerful, simple and easy to use.

This program runs on Debian-based Linux systems and performs raw cloning from disk to disk, disk to image, and image to disk. It is powered by the dd tool. Much better here: https://sourceforge.net/p/sysbackres/ https://github.com/shampuan/Zeus-Raw-Copy

Remote Subversion repository dump

Archeotes is a backup software designed to be extremely flexible. Define exactly which files you want to save, encrypt, compress, keep old copies, encrypt path, safe delete of obsolete files. Complete and differential backup capability. Easy recovery

The program qt4-fsarchiver and qt5-fsarchiver is no longer supported. You can find the new program qt-fsarchiver here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/qt-fsarchiver/

Capivara is a graphical file transfer and file synchronization application. It supports network protocols such as SFTP and FTP.

ByteSync is a powerful open-source tool for remote file comparison and synchronization, designed to transfer only what truly matters: the differences. Whether you're syncing large files, backing up remote folders, or handling extensive sets of small files, ByteSync delivers speed, security, and efficiency—without unnecessary data transfers. Compatible with Windows, macOS, and Linux, ByteSync leverages cloud-based orchestration with end-to-end encryption, eliminating the need for VPNs or firewall configurations. No continuous background syncing, no bloat—just fast, on-demand file synchronization between remote devices.

SyncManager is a custom-made lightweight synchronization manager that helps you synchronize files and folders across different locations. SyncManager lets you synchronize your data in two ways: manually or automatically. Manual syncing mode lets you decide what and when to synchronize data, while automatic syncing mode synchronizes data based on its average synchronization time. It also offers three distinct synchronization types: two-way, one-way, and one-way update, allowing you to synchronize data between folders in different ways. Plus, it has filtering and customizable versioning settings that help you to set synchronization more precisely. You can also decide how to handle old versions of files and folders: move them to the trash, delete them permanently, or version them in a special folder. The utility is operating as a fully automated solution that seamlessly launches at system startup.

A file synchronization/backup utility. Designed to synchronize two folders. It can be used as a backup by synchronizing to a backup source. You can synchronize multiple computers to the same storage source. Includes FTP, SFTP and FTPS support.

Backup to another disk. Optimimal reduced disk space and to improved performance. storeBackup is now hosted at http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/storebackup You will find the homepage at http://www.nongnu.org/storebackup/

PathScan exports information about the contents of directories and hard drives. With a single click, users can create a complete list of all files and paths within a specific folder or across an entire hard drive. The PathScan script can be used in a variety of scenarios, especially where you need to gather information about files and directories on a Windows system.

** This project has moved to a new location: http://relax-and-recover.org/ ** Relax-and-Recover (Rear) is the leading Open Source disaster recovery solution, and successor to mkcdrec. It comprises of a modular framework and ready-to-go workflows for many common situations to produce a bootable image and restore from backup using this image. As a benefit, it allows to restore to different hardware and can therefore be used as a migration tool as well. Currently Relax-and-Recover supports various boot media (incl. ISO, PXE, OBDR tape, USB or eSATA storage), a variety of network protocols (incl. sftp, ftp, http, nfs, cifs) as well as a multitude of backup strategies (incl. IBM TSM, HP DataProtector, Symantec NetBackup, EMC NetWorker, Bacula, rsync). Relax-and-Recover was designed to be easy to set up, requires no maintenance and is there to assist when disaster strikes. Its setup-and-forget nature removes any excuse for not having a disaster recovery solution implemented.

A project to provide change control for OpenDocument files via subversion under Unix. Can check in internal changes in files and allows users to recover any previous version, view logs and compare with older versions.
