Bup[1] "it backs things up" creator Avery Pennarun[2][3] on Bup 2:30P  
Saturday, SF

Bup "it backs things up" does efficient sub-file deduplication and
compression suitable for disk-to-disk or disk-to-remote-host backups.

It's based git and python and the rolling-checksum concept that makes
rsync transfers so efficient.

Bup has no user-friendly graphical UI yet- this will be more about the
technology and the commandline interface.

Avery will be in town in about a week and has agreed to give a
presentation
