rsync-time-machine.py v1.0.0 Release Notes

We're excited to announce the first release of rsync-time-machine.py! This project represents a port of a popular but untested 600+ line Bash script, rsync-time-backup, to a fully tested Python script. With this release, users can now enjoy the flexibility and robustness of the original script with the added benefits of a Python-based solution.

New Features

• Time Machine-style backups: Each backup is stored in its own folder, named after the current timestamp, making it easy to recover files at any point in time.
• Cross-platform support: Works on Linux, macOS, and Windows (via WSL or Cygwin).
• TrueCrypt backup support: Can backup to a Truecrypt drive without any issues.
• No external dependencies: Requires only Python ≥3.7.
• Fully tested: Unlike the original Bash script, rsync-time-machine.py has been thoroughly tested.
• Pretty terminal output: Features aesthetically pleasing terminal output.
• Fully typed: The script has complete typing, which ensures safer and more reliable code.

Usage Changes

• Use the same options as the original rsync-time-backup script for a seamless transition.
• The script includes several new flags to set and modify rsync options.

Known Issues

• There are currently no known issues in this release. However, if you encounter any issues, please report them on the GitHub issue tracker.

Future Plans

• We are actively working on adding new features and improving the existing ones. Your feedback and contributions are very welcome!

We hope you enjoy using rsync-time-machine.py. If you have any questions or issues, please don't hesitate to open an issue on our GitHub repo.

Happy backing up! 💾🕰️🎉
