GIMP is an acronym for GNU Image Manipulation Program. It is a freely distributed program for such tasks as photo retouching, image composition and image authoring. It has many capabilities. It can ... [More] be used as a simple paint program, an expert quality photo retouching program, an online batch processing system, a mass production image renderer, an image format converter, etc. GIMP is expandable and extensible. It is designed to be augmented with plug-ins and extensions to do just about anything. The advanced scripting interface allows everything from the simplest task to the most complex image manipulation procedures to be easily scripted. GIMP is written and developed under X11 on UNIX platforms. But basically the same code also runs on MS Windows and Mac OS X. [Less]

rdiff-backup backs up one directory to another, possible over a network. The target directory ends up a copy of the source directory, but extra reverse diffs are stored in a special subdirectory of ... [More] that target directory, so you can still recover files lost some time ago. The idea is to combine the best features of a mirror and an incremental backup. rdiff-backup also preserves subdirectories, hard links, dev files, permissions, uid/gid ownership (if it is running as root), modification times, acls, eas, resource forks, etc. Finally, rdiff-backup can operate in a bandwidth efficient manner over a pipe, like rsync. Thus you can use rdiff-backup and ssh to securely back a hard drive up to a remote location, and only the differences will be transmitted. [Less]

Duplicity backs up directories by producing encrypted tar-format volumes and uploading them to a remote or local file server. Because duplicity uses librsync, the incremental archives are space ... [More] efficient and only record the parts of files that have changed since the last backup. Because duplicity uses GnuPG to encrypt and/or sign these archives, they will be safe from spying and/or modification by the server. The duplicity package also includes the rdiffdir utility. Rdiffdir is an extension of librsync's rdiff to directories---it can be used to produce signatures and deltas of directories as well as regular files. These signatures and deltas are in GNU tar format. [Less]

DescriptionBased on and inspired by Apple's Time Machine backup system. Mime is a backup program written in Python that will perform an initial full system backup to any mounted drive that is ... [More] formatted to a standard Linux/Unix file system that supports hard links. All successive backups will create full incremental system images, thus allowing multiple versions of files to exist on the backup media. The package also includes a powerful command line utility called lsmime for listing, restoring and deleting files from your backups. If you have more than one system in your home or office, each system can use the same backup media to backup their data without interrupting data backed up from the other systems. [Less]

fwbackups is a feature-rich user backup program that allows you to backup your documents anytime, anywhere. fwbackups offers a simple but powerful interface and supports multiple scheduled backups ... [More] , on-demand backups as well as restores. fwbackups can backup to a local disk or alternatively to another host using SFTP. [Less]

Mound Data Manager is a tool that can manage data in the context of other applications. You can take snapshots, delete, and move data from many of your favorite applications.

BaculaFS is a tool that represents the Bacula catalog and backup storage media as a read-only filesystem in userspace.

Photo downloader (importer) from cameras, memory cards and portable storage devices. Rapid Photo Downloader is written by a photographer for professional and amateur photographers. Released under ... [More] the GNU GPL license, it is designed for use on the Linux Desktop. It can download photos from multiple cameras, memory cards and Portable Storage Devices simultaneously. It provides many options for subfolder creation, image renaming and backup. [Less]

Manent is an algorithmically strong backup and archival program. It features: Efficient backup to anything that looks like a storage. Currently it supports plain filesystem ("directory"), ftp and ... [More] sftp. Planned are Amazon S3, optical disks and email (smtp + imap). Manent can work (making progress towards finishing a backup) over a slow and unreliable network. Manent can offer online access to the contents of the backup. Currentlly, local FTP serving is being worked on; in the future, FUSE support for Linux will be added. Backed up storage is completely encrypted. Backup is incremental, including changed parts of large files. Moved, renamed and duplicate files will not require additional storage. Several computers can use the same storage for backup, automatically sharing data. Both very l [Less]

sync2cd is an incremental archiving tool. It allows backing up complete filesystem hierarchies to multiple backup media (e.g. CD-R). Files are archived incrementally, i.e. only new or changed files ... [More] are stored during an archive operation. All entity types are supported: directories, files, symlinks, named pipes, sockets, block and character devices. [Less]
