NAME
bup-init - initialize a bup repository
SYNOPSIS
[BUP_DIR=localpath] bup init [-r host:path]
DESCRIPTION
bup init
initializes your local bup repository. By default, BUP_DIR
is ~/.bup
.
OPTIONS
- -r, --remote=host:path
- Initialize not only the local repository, but also the
remote repository given by the host and path. This is
not necessary if you intend to back up to the default
location on the server (ie. a blank path). The connection to the
remote server is made with SSH. If you'd like to specify which port, user
or private key to use for the SSH connection, we recommend you use the
~/.ssh/config
file.
