I don’t understand the author’s difficulties with a minimalist bash-wrapped rsync-based backup. You can even hardlink to unchanged files from a previous backup to save space.

This is how I wrap rsync: https://github.com/kaumanns/snapshot

And regarding file permissions: why not simply use an EXT4 backup drive instead of an FAT32 one? Non-rhetorical question.

My home network Raspberry has an HDD attached which gets fired up every couple days for a fresh snapshot of $HOME. The only thing I am missing is redundancy. And possibly encryption.
