Introduction

Fuse-backup is a backupservice for Linux.

It provides easy access to backup and previous versions of files. This easy access has been a frustation when working with other backup software. When you're looking for the exact changes of a file, you might end up searching in archives for these.

Fuse-backup maintains backups, and provides access to the versions of the files.

The user can select per directory what is to be backupped using mimetypes. The reason for this is that directories contain files of a certain type. For example, a directory for software development contains source and header files. By assigning the mimetypes text/x-chdr and text/x-csrc (when dealing with C development) to this directory, only files of these types will be backuped.

The user can manage backups using commands like mkdir, ln, getfattr and setfattr.
