Hey, you probably know about restic and borg for backups. They are pretty mature and very commonly used.
Rustic is a fully compatible reimplementation of restic in Rust and they do seem to have implemented a few improvements over restic. The developer even used to be a contributor on restic.
Is anyone here using it already? It looks super promising but I’d love to hear your opinion!
Wow, people in this thread really have strong opinions about other people writing similar programs in different languages. Who cares? Why is more choice a bad thing?
What is the advantage of using this over restic?
They have a page in the repo describing some advantages https://github.com/rustic-rs/rustic/blob/main/docs/comparison-restic.md
Q. How do you know an open source project is written in Rust?
A. Don’t worry, they’ll tell you.
