Description
|
|
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This command creates a backup archive containing all files found while recursively
|
|
|
|
traversing all paths specified. The archive will consume almost no disk space for
|
|
|
|
files or parts of files that have already been stored in other archives.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
See the output of the "borg help patterns" command for more help on exclude patterns.
