Verlauf
Projektgeschichte und Nutzung
rdiff-backup is a local and network-capable backup tool that keeps the latest backup as an ordinary mirror while storing earlier states as reverse differences.
Projektgeschichte
Ben Escoto originated and maintained rdiff-backup from 2001 to 2005. Dean Gaudet, Andrew Ferguson, and Edward Ned Harvey were key contributors from 2005 through 2016.
After a period of hibernation, Sol1 assumed stewardship in 2016 without producing a release. Eric Lavarde, supported by Otto Kekäläinen and Patrik Dufresne, took over in 2019, completed the Python 3 rewrite, and released version 2.0 in March 2020.
Adoptionsgeschichte
The official history describes nearly two decades of use before the 2.0 revival. Packaging across major Linux distributions, BSD-oriented ecosystems, macOS, Windows package managers, and Nix reflects broad cross-platform adoption.
The Python 3 rewrite restored a maintained release line while preserving rdiff-backup's established repository model.
Wie es verwendet wird
Users back up one directory to another locally or through a remote rdiff-backup process, commonly transported over SSH. Restore commands select a time or increment, while retention commands remove history older than a specified age.
The program accepts an arbitrary user-chosen options file through @filename, but the official manual specifies no standard configuration-file location.
Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren
rdiff-backup combines a directly browsable current mirror with reverse-differential history. Package enthusiasts value this unusual design because it supplies incremental retention without periodic space-consuming full backups.
Its remote mode transfers differences through a pipe and is commonly paired with SSH, placing it between rsync-style synchronization and traditional archival backup software.
Zeitleiste

- 2005: The original maintainer period ended and key contributors continued development.
- 2016: Sol1 assumed stewardship after a period of hibernation.
- 2019: Eric Lavarde, Otto Kekäläinen, and Patrik Dufresne began the modern revival.
- 2020: Version 2.0, completing the Python 3 rewrite, was released in March.
Related projects
- rdiff-backup is conceptually related to rsync and uses bandwidth-efficient delta transfer, but additionally retains reverse increments under rdiff-backup-data.
