Crestic is a slim configuration wrapper for Restic, an awesome backup tool.
The goal of crestic is to make running restic easy, e.g. creating backups using
crestic home backup
instead of running complex restic commands:
restic backup \
--repo sftp:your_server:my_computer.restic \
--password-file ~/.config/restic/password \
--exclude-file ~/.config/restic/excludes \
~
To achieve this, this tool simply maps any commandline options for restic to a key in an config file:
