TARSNAP.CONF(5) File Formats Manual TARSNAP.CONF(5) NAME tarsnap.conf -- configuration file for tarsnap(1) DESCRIPTION The tarsnap.conf file is read by the tarsnap(1) utility and specifies de- fault options which will be ignored if the options in question are speci- fied at the command line. Options may be specified in /usr/local/etc/tarsnap.conf and/or ~/.tarsnaprc; if the two files conflict, the user's local configuration takes precedence. The tarsnap.conf file(s) contain lines consisting of a case-sensitive op- tion name and zero or one parameters depending upon the option. Empty lines and lines starting with a `#' character are ignored. If a parameter begins with a `~' character, it will be replaced by the home directory of the effective user ID. The following options may be specified: aggressive-networking cachedir cache-dir checkpoint-bytes bytespercheckpoint disk-pause X exclude pattern force-resources humanize-numbers include pattern insane-filesystems iso-dates keyfile key-file lowmem maxbw maxbw-rate maxbw-rate-down maxbw-rate-up nodump normalmem no-aggressive-networking no-config-exclude no-config-include no-disk-pause no-force-resources no-humanize-numbers no-insane-filesystems no-iso-dates no-maxbw no-maxbw-rate-down no-maxbw-rate-up no-nodump no-print-stats no-quiet no-retry-forever no-snaptime no-store-atime no-totals print-stats quiet retry-forever snaptime file store-atime totals verylowmem Each option is handled the same way as the corresponding --option; see tarsnap(1) for more details. Note that the normalmem and no-* options are only useful in the user-specific ~/.tarsnaprc configuration file, at which point they act to override options set in the global /usr/local/etc/tarsnap.conf configuration file. FILES /usr/local/etc/tarsnap.conf The system global tarsnap.conf configuration file. Parameters specified here only take effect if they are not specified via the current user's local configuration file or via the command line. ~/.tarsnaprc The tarsnap.conf configuration file for the current user. Parame- ters specified here take effect unless they are specified via the command line. SEE ALSO tarsnap(1) FreeBSD ports 15.quarterly March 20, 2025 TARSNAP.CONF(5)
