    This is not for getting a new allocation of more disk space for online backup but instead standalone software for backing up to your existing local or online storage.

    rdiff-backup backs up one directory to another, possibly 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 that target directory, so you can still recover files lost some time ago.
