Open Source Ruby Backup Software

Backup is a system utility for Linux and Mac OS X, distributed as a RubyGem, that allows you to easily perform backup operations. It provides an elegant DSL in Ruby for modeling your backups. Backup has built-in support for various databases, storage protocols/services, syncers, compressors, encryptors and notifiers which you can mix and match. It was built with modularity, extensibility and simplicity in mind.

rsync-based backup script designed to sync files between local and portable storage for easy migration between multiple PCs without relying on network transfer or cloud storage. Sync operations are organized as customizable sync tasks that can be selectively chosen each time the script is executed. To use the script, browse the code repository, and download files 'teleport.rb' and the sample config file. For more information, read README.
