Comment (by daira):
I'd much rather enhance {{{tahoe backup}}} to record more metadata (and to
tolerate errors better), and add a {{{tahoe restore}}} (or {{{tahoe cp
--restore}}}) command to restore that metadata. I think that {{{tahoe
backup}}} is a good idea for backups because:
* it makes effective use of immutable files and directories;
* I like the transparency of a backup being a snapshot rather than some
opaque thing in some weird format I don't understand, as it is for most
backup programs.
