Description: Maintenance-free client & server backup scripts for Linux
 byteback encapsulates Bytemark's "best practice" for maintenance-free backups
 with easy client and server setup.
 .
 "Maintenance-free" means that we'd rather make full use of a fixed amount of
 disc space.  Management of disc space must be completely automatic, so the
 process never grinds to a halt for reasons that could be automatically
 resolved.  Failed backups can be restarted in case of network problems.
 .
 We use the standard OpenSSH on the server for encrypted transport & access
 control, btrfs for simple snapshots and rsync for efficient data transfer
 across the network.
 .
 Backups should require as little configuration as possible to be safe - just
 the server address should be enough.
