Auto periodic backups #896

Open iulko opened 1 year ago

iulko commented 1 year ago

Could we get an option to periodicaly/on change save the backup to a file so we could use Syncthing to backup it to the cloud? I know now its possible to do it without getting any new permision, only for specific file.

Thank you for the great app

These backups (as implemented today) aren't incremental though. They are more of a snapshot. These backups would be incredibly expensive (in terms of size) if done periodically.

Sorry if I wasn't specific. What I would imagine is you specify a location of a file as a user, for example "backupfile.dat" in download folder and than every 1 day a snapshot is saved there with same filename. Than you can sync this backup to your backup cloud or anything you want with a 3rd party app.
