A program for creating, culling, and remote backup of btrfs snapshots

Project description

snapintime is meant to manage the creation, culling, and send to a remote location of btrfs snapshots.

As of version 0.8.0, it creates snapshots, culls local snapshots three days old, and can btrfs send/receive to a remote btrfs subvol.

Culling:

  • Three days ago: Leave at most 4 snapshots behind - closest snapshots to 0000, 0600, 1200, and 1800. (implemented)

  • Seven days ago: Leave at most 1 snapshot behind - the last one that day. In a perfect situation, it would be the one taken at 1800.

  • After a quarter (defined as 13 weeks) - Leave at most 1 snapshot per week.

  • After a year (52 weeks) - Leave at most 1 snapshot per quarter
