Full version history backup, a thought.
2007-07-30 08:41:15
I was wondering about keeping a full version history of my files and thought if
I place them in a subversion or Git repository then I could back that up and
restore any version I want whenever I need to.
Then I thought maybe if Amanda were to un-tar my backups into a holding space
that was a version control system then tape the version controlled holding space
to tape then I would have a managed backup system and have the advantage of
being able to go back as far as I like to collect a version of a file.
Is this possible, what do you think of short-comings, like are there file types
that do not lend themselves well to "only differences" versioning, what
versioning systems are best and store the smallest data amount for the
differences etc.
Chris.
