Marco Bonelli ac4094e0ad Refactor: improve consistency of the term "directory".
This commit changes the term "folder" to "directory" in every
instance where the first is used in an example description, but the
second is used in the example code, and vice versa.

duplicity

Creates incremental, compressed, encrypted and versioned backups. Can also upload the backups to a variety of backend services.

  • Backup a directory via FTPS to a remote machine, encrypting it with a password:

FTP_PASSWORD={{ftp_login_password}} PASSPHRASE={{encryption_password}} duplicity {{path/to/source/directory}} {{ftps://user@hostname/target/directory/path/}}

  • Backup a folder to Amazon S3, doing a full backup every month:

duplicity --full-if-older-than {{1M}} --use-new-style s3://{{bucket_name[/prefix]}}

  • Delete versions older than 1 year from a backup stored on a WebDAV share:

FTP_PASSWORD={{webdav_login_password}} duplicity remove-older-than {{1Y}} --force {{webdav[s]://user@hostname[:port]/some_dir}}

  • List the available backups:

duplicity collection-status "file://{{absolute/path/to/backup/folder}}"

  • List the files in a backup stored on a remote machine, via ssh:

duplicity list-current-files --time {{YYYY-MM-DD}} scp://{{user@hostname}}/path/to/backup/dir

  • Restore a subdirectory from a GnuPG-encrypted local backup to a given location:

PASSPHRASE={{gpg_key_password}} duplicity restore --encrypt-key {{gpg_key_id}} --file-to-restore {{relative/path/restoredirectory}} file://{{absolute/path/to/backup/directory}} {{path/to/directory/to/restore/to}}
