But it's hard to say if it's a backup. For example, if you delete a file from the archive folder, and that happened to be the only copy of the file, it's gone. + +It's definitely possible to use git-annex in backup-like ways, but what I want to discourage is users thinking that just putting files into git-annex means that they have a backup. Proper backups need to be designed, and tested. It helps to use software that is explicitly designed as a backup solution. git-annex is more about file distribution, and some archiving, than backups. +"""]] |
