.SH "NAME"
storeBackup.pl \- fancy compressing managing checksumming hard\-linking cp \-ua
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
This program copies trees to another location. Every file copied is
potentially compressed (see \-\-exceptSuffix). The backups after
the first backup will compare the files with an md5 checksum
with the last stored version. If they are equal, it will only make an
hard link to it. It will also check mtime, ctime and size to recognize
idential files in older backups very fast.
It can also backup big image files fast and efficiently on a per block
basis (data deduplication).
.PP
You can overwrite options in the configuration file on the command line.
