Large File support ? #2

Open extremeshok opened 9 years ago

extremeshok commented 9 years ago

What is considered a large file ? 100GB ? 10GB ? 1GB ? 100MB ?

What happens if a single file is larger than the "large file" limit ?

Does the script split the large files into smaller pieces to back them up ?

With incremental backups.. if a single file of 10GB already has a backup and only 100mb of the single file has changed.. is the incremental backup the entire file (10GB?) or only the 100mb part which has changed.

Thanks for your project

For now, i don't check the size

First, i will add an error where you try to save a > 5Go file. You're right..

Then, I will support large file format as soon as possible.

Of course, only modifed fragments will be updated.

We have to decide what is the best pieces sizes ( maybe a program options ... )

If a directory has 1000 files of 1mb each.. Will the program upload each file (1000 files) or does it first create a single archive and upload it.

No, each separate file ils uploaded.It works like rsync
