Very interesting. Thank you
I have totally missed the concept of copying all files as a starting point.
I was dismayed to read that a file that was deleted disappears from the
back up as well. UMMM I didn't know I had deleted that file. A
month/year later I NEED it quickly. What to do?
I went back to timeshift and looking again, this concept of copying all
files seems to be used here as well. The author does say that the app
uses btrfs inbuilt snapshot process when available.
I have to look harder when I browse over something. Is it looking
obvious that I never really learnt how to read, 70 years ago in primary
school.
