About Back In Time

Graphical front-end for incremental rsync backups on Linux. Unchanged files are hard-linked rather than copied, so each snapshot looks complete while using very little extra disk space, and restores work straight from a file manager.

It is Linux-only and inherits rsync's weaknesses, including no built-in encryption and slow handling of very large file counts.
