Inspired by Time Machine, FlyBack, rsnapshot, and other rsync based snapshot backup tools. It will have an easy to use GUI and remote backup support (via ssh). The main mode of operation will be similar to Apple's Time Machine -- every hour it will make an incremental backup that appears as a new snapshot. Like all the mentioned programs, it will use hard links to save space by not duplicating unchanged files.

The backup script started as Rich Guk's rrsync:

This program owes much to Mike Rubel and his essay, Easy Automated Snapshot-Style Backups with Linux and Rsync:
