Backup: Incremental w/o recurring Full-backup, Delete changes older than x, Selective backup & save other data's metadata ? - Lemmy

1. I like the Incremental backup method, it needs frequent full backups (as i understand from “grandfather,father,son” method), is there a way to have version control where i only create full-backup only once 2. and I can choose to delete changes older than 1 month. 3. How to only backup select files, like only personal data, 4. and a “ghost” for other data. Ghost is only filename and it’s metadata. Data selected for Ghost from internet which can be downloaded. with folder structure. # Related 5. Have a “file change tracker” to see summary of what files are moved/deleted/renamed. 6. “File History” where I see previous version of files. https://restic.net/ [https://restic.net/] https://www.borgbackup.org/ [https://www.borgbackup.org/]
