Snapshot-based backup over SSH/rsync and rclone — command-line client.
Moraine is a small, fast backup client written in Rust. Hard-linked snapshots
over SSH make every run look like a complete tree while only changed files take
new space; restore anything from any snapshot. It also supports an rclone
backend for cloud/object storage and FTP.
This Windows package ships the moraine command-line client. The GTK desktop
app is Linux-only.
