[tahoe-dev] Robocopy

[Jim Dorrington]

Thanks for the pointer to the tahoe backup command Greg.

I created an alias called 'Backupstuff' and reworked it thus:

tahoe backup K:\mytestdata Backupstuff:backups

where mytestdata contained 25MB of data. The backup took 18 minutes
49 files uploaded (0 reused), 0 files skipped, 12 directories created (0
reused), 0 directories skipped

Repeating the backup immediately afterwards took only 8 seconds
0 files uploaded (49 reused), 0 files skipped, 0 directories created (12
reused), 0 directories skipped

This is just what I wanted to achieve thanks for the help.
Jim

I don't have any insight about windows, but:

  'tahoe backup' may do what you want.
