    Mackup

    Mackup

    Keep your application settings in sync

    Back ups your application settings in a safe directory (e.g. Dropbox). Syncs your application settings among all your workstations. Restores your configuration on any fresh install in one command line. If you have Dropbox installed and want to use it to save your config files, that's super easy. On macOS, if you want an easy install, you can install Homebrew and initialize it with it. If not running macOS, or you don't like Homebrew, you can use pip. On Ubuntu, pip will install to the current user's home directory rather than system-wide. Because of this, when installing pip on Ubuntu you will need to run pip install with the --system flag as well (on other platforms this is not needed). By only tracking pure configuration files, it keeps the crap out of your freshly new installed workstation (no cache, temporary and locally specific files are transfered). Mackup makes setting up the environment easy and simple, saving time for your family, great ideas, and all the cool stuff you like.

    Kopia

    Kopia

    Cross-platform backup tool for Windows, macOS and Linux

    Kopia is a fast, secure, and open-source backup and restore tool designed to help users and administrators protect important data by creating encrypted, deduplicated snapshots and storing them in a range of local, network, or cloud storage locations. Instead of imaging entire machines, it focuses on backing up selected files and directories with efficient incremental backups that only transfer changed data, which reduces storage and bandwidth needs. Kopia has both a command-line interface for automation and scripting as well as a graphical UI for interactive use, making it suitable for advanced users and those who prefer visual tools. Its architecture supports end-to-end encryption, optional compression, and deduplication, so multiple backups can share data efficiently, and repositories can be stored securely even in untrusted locations.
