bup(1) General Commands Manual bup(1) NAME bup - Backup program using rolling checksums and git file formats SYNOPSIS bup [global options...] <command> [options...] DESCRIPTION bup is a program for making backups of your files using the git file format. Unlike git(1) itself, bup is optimized for handling huge data sets in- cluding individual very large files (such a virtual machine images). However, once a backup set is created, it can still be accessed using git tools. The individual bup subcommands appear in their own man pages. GLOBAL OPTIONS --version print bup's version number. Equivalent to bup-version(1) -d, --bup-dir=BUP_DIR use the given BUP_DIR parameter as the bup repository location, instead of reading it from the $BUP_DIR environment variable or using the default ~/.bup location.
