Hi, I'm not done with my series yet, but thought I'd mention some recent dar-related posts and such that I've made: Recommendations for Tools for Backing Up and Archiving to Removable Media https://changelog.complete.org/archives/10500-recommendations-for-tools-for-backing-up-and-archiving-to-removable-media Discusses my project and how dar fits in. Using dar for Data Archiving https://changelog.complete.org/archives/10527-using-dar-for-data-archiving The in-depth analysis of dar according to the guidelines in the first post Mastodon thread about dar https://floss.social/@jgoerzen/110584716548088152 I note the concept that dar is essentially a powerful filesystem differ and patcher, how it can provide an asynchronous rsync, etc. Roundup of Data Backup and Archiving Tools https://www.complete.org/roundup-of-data-backup-and-archiving-tools/ Looks at backuppc, bacula, borg, dar, and git-annex. They are all tools I've used and have very different characteristics in some ways. Still to come: concluding my blog series, and more depth on dar on my website. - John
