Some questions that weren't answered in the readme: - What type of encryption is used exactly? Is it a simple encfs which leaks some meta information or is a container created or something else? - Is it a full snapshop backup or does it work incrementally?

It's aes256 using openssl:

Does that leak information you would be concerned about?

It's always a full backup.

[GRBurst]

Nope. There are some concerns about using openssl for file encryption and it is generally good to be very specific about the encryption instead of using default parameters. I don't necessary share all the concerns, but it might be worth knowing them, e.g. https://security.stackexchange.com/a/182281

Thanks for the pointer. gpg is the better option then, I've switched to it.

Still a thumbs up because all backup solutions I and a lot of my friends are aware don't cover most use cases and I am happy to see people are trying to fill some of those gaps
