BRACKUP(1) User Contributed Perl Documentation BRACKUP(1)

brackup - do a backup using Brackup

 $ brackup [-v] --from=<source> --to=<target> [--output=my_backup.brackup] [--save-stats]

--from=NAME
Required. The source or root of your backup. Must match a [SOURCE:NAME] config section in your ~/.brackup.conf (which is auto-created for you on first run, so then you just have to go modify it). See Brackup::Root for more.
--to=NAME
Required. The destination or target for your backup. Must match a [TARGET:NAME] config section in your ~/.brackup.conf. See Brackup::Target for more.
--output=FILE
Optional. Defaults to "source-target-YYYYMMDD.brackup". This is the "metafile" index you'll need to do a restore.
--config=FILE
Specify the configuration file to use; defaults to ~/.brackup.
--save-stats[=FILE]
Optional. Flag to indicate that stats output should be recorded to a file. If =FILE is omitted, defaults to "source-target-YYYYMMDD.stats."
--verbose|-v
Show status during backup.
--dry-run
Don't actually store any data on the target.
--du-stats
Prints the size, in kB, of data underneath each directory (recursively) which will be backed up.
--zenityprogress
Produces output suitable for piping into "zenity --progress" to get a pretty GUI progress bar while running a backup. This option is incompatable with "--verbose", as both print to STDOUT.
--list-sources
List the names of the sources defined in your configuration file.
--list-targets
List the names of the targets defined in your configuration file.
