Emborg — Front-End to Borg Backup
- Author:
Ken Kundert
- Version:
1.43
- Released:
2026-06-28
Emborg is a simple command line utility to orchestrate backups. It is built as a front-end to Borg, a powerful and fast deduplicating backup program. With Emborg, you specify all the details about your backups once in advance, and then use a very simple command line interface for your day-to-day activities.
Use of Emborg does not preclude the use of Borg directly on the same repository. The philosophy of Emborg is to provide commands that you would use often and in an interactive manner with the expectation that you would use Borg directly for the remaining commands.
Emborg is not intended for use with Borg version 2.0 or later. Instead, the successor to Emborg should be used: Assimilate.
