encbup

Encrypted backups (without the backups).

Description

encbup is a companion to bup, the backup program. encbup adds encryption to bup, while still allowing per-file deduplication.

encbup can be thought of as an encrypted version of tar. It accepts a list of files and produces an encrypted blob.

Usage

To encrypt:

encbup.py --encrypt - /my/data/dir/ /some/file

To decrypt:

encbup.py --decrypt - /my/outdir/

Protocol

The protocol is detailed in PROTOCOL.md. If you find any errors, omissions, or have any feedback, please contact me or open an issue.
