And yet again: A list of alternatives.

attic (python) - https://github.com/jborg/attic

borg (c) - https://github.com/borgbackup/borg

bupstash (rust) - https://github.com/andrewchambers/bupstash

duplicacy (go) - https://github.com/gilbertchen/duplicacy

duplicati (c#) - https://github.com/duplicati/duplicati

duplicity (python) - https://github.com/henrysher/duplicity

kopia (go) - https://github.com/kopia/kopia

nfreezer (python) - https://github.com/josephernest/nfreezer

rdedup (rust) - https://github.com/dpc/rdedup

restic (go) - https://github.com/restic/restic

rclone (go) - https://github.com/rclone/rclone

rsnapshot (perl) - https://github.com/rsnapshot/rsnapshot

snebu (c) - https://github.com/derekp7/snebu

tarsnap (c) - https://github.com/Tarsnap/tarsnap

I think there are many more out there (https://github.com/restic/others) - I personally use

  restic
while technology wise (speed, only restore needs password) i would prefer

  rdedup
which is an impressive piece of software but unfortunately without file iterator... :-)



borg maintainer here:

attic should not be on the list, it is unmaintained since 2015.

borg came into life as a fork of attic for related reasons, so it should be borg (Python+Cython+C).


would casync [1] fit in this list?
