rsnapshot is a filesystem snapshot utility for making backups of local and remote systems. It leverages rsync and hard links to create efficient incremental backups, allowing users to maintain multiple backups without consuming excessive disk space.​

...It uses rsync to take manual or scheduled snapshots and stores them locally or remotely through SSH. Each snapshot is in its own folder with copies of the original files, but unchanged files are hard-linked between snapshots to save storage space. It was inspired by FlyBack.

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.

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. ...

BackupPC is a high-performance, enterprise-grade system for backing up Linux, Windows, and macOS systems to a central server using rsync, tar, SMB, or FTP. It uses hard-linking and compression to efficiently store multiple backups of the same files and offers a web interface for administration and restore. BackupPC is suitable for environments where centralized, disk-based backups are needed.

Automatically exclude development dependencies from Apple Time Machine backups. For macOS users, Time Machine is a no-frills, set-it-and-forget-it solution for on-site backups. Plug in an external hard drive (or configure a network storage drive), and your Mac's files are backed up. For the average consumer, Time Machine is an excellent choice, especially considering many Mac owners may only have Time Machine as a backup strategy. Asimov aims to solve problems, scanning your filesystem for known dependency directories (e.g. node_modules/ living adjacent to a package.json file) and excluding them from Time Machine backups. ...

...It creates incremental backups of files and directories, placing each snapshot in its own timestamped folder so you can restore files by simply copying them from the backup tree. Unchanged files between backups are represented as hard links, which means you get a full snapshot view of each backup while using minimal additional disk space. The script supports both local and remote destinations over SSH, making it suitable for backing up to external drives, NAS devices, or remote servers. On macOS it lacks some Time Machine automations like plug-and-backup or a dedicated restore GUI, but it compensates with the ability to work on Linux and Windows (via WSL or Cygwin) and to target any filesystem, including encrypted ones such as TrueCrypt volumes.

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.

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.

rsback makes rotating backups using the common rsync program combined with hard-link copies on Unix-based backup hosts. This results in a fast and disk space saving backup technique. No more updates of rsback will be published here. Current versions are available here: https://www.pollux.franken.de/projekte/rsback

This application, based on the command-line utility psync, is designed to allow novice computer users to backup either one part of their hard drive or the entire hard drive to another computer. In addition, it allows users to schedule backups.

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.

iTmsBackup is a Mac OS X application that backs up audio files purchased from the iTunes Music Store. Backups (and incremental backups) can be made to a hard drive or other removable media, allowing a more flexible backup solution than Apple's iTunes.

Simple tool to backup Livejournal entries written in Python. Given a username and date range, downloads all entries in the range and places them in html files on the user's hard drive.

Commandline tool to manage backup files that are stored on hard drives. Employs infinite grandfather-father-son strategy by deleting defined subset of all backup files, saving space while permitting access to older versions. Aka "Virtual Tape Rotation"
