     1.4 +Rsnapshot is a filesystem snapshot utility based on rsync.
     1.5 +Rsnapshot makes it easy to make periodic snapshots of local machines,
     1.6 +and remote machines over ssh.
     1.7 +The code makes extensive use of hard links whenever possible, to greatly
     1.8 +reduce the disk space required.
     1.9 +
    1.10 +Depending on your configuration, it is quite possible to set up in just
    1.11 +a few minutes.
    1.12 +Files can be restored by the users who own them, without the root user
    1.13 +getting involved.
    1.14 +
    1.15 +There are no tapes to change, so once it's set up, your backups can happen
    1.16 +automatically untouched by human hands.
    1.17 +And because rsnapshot only keeps a fixed (but configurable) number of
    1.18 +snapshots, the amount of disk space used will not continuously grow.
    1.19 +
    1.20 +It is written entirely in perl with no module dependencies, and has been
    1.21 +tested with versions 5.004 through 5.16.3.
    1.22 +It should work on any reasonably modern UNIX compatible OS.
    1.23 +
    1.24 +Rsnapshot was originally based on an article called Easy Automated
    1.25 +Snapshot-Style Backups with Linux and Rsync, by Mike Rubel.
