📄 Description

obnam is a backup tool that supports network backups, GPG encryption, data de-duplication (" If the backup repository already contains a particular chunk of data, it will be re-used, even if it was in another file in an older backup generation."). It is snapshot-based and has an easy to use but powerful command line interface. Obnam backup generations can be mounted as a filesystem.
clonezilla - do I need to introduce it - is a disk imaging and cloning tool running as a Live CD/USB. It can be used to move operating systems and other partititons between machines, bare metal or virtual, do full backups of an installed system, and more.
rdiff-backup is another well known backup tool. It is fast over a network as it only transmits deltas. It stores the most recent backup as a plain copy of the original directory structure, while reverse diffs to previous versions (including deleted files) are stored in a special subdirectory ("The idea is to combine the best features of a mirror and an incremental backup.")
