Reverse is a backup program that with a focus on the following requirements:
- Deduplication of identical files
- Handle renames
- Allow for occasional sneakernet transfers when the size of the backup is over a threshold
- After the initial backup, all subsequent backups are incremental.
It backs up to a remote SFTP server.
