Open Fantu opened 1 year ago

For help users/developers to reach this repository I think can be useful add topics like:

I think can be useful add also description so is easier see what is from list of repositories in search in "all github"

veeam commented 1 year ago

Done.

@veeam thanks, now is better with descriptions and topic, about description I think a small improvement for mention that is snapshot from kernel is better, there are other softwares that wrote about snapshot but are not at kernel level and some isn't a block or filesystem snapshot but only "file-based" backup entries as snapshot

Hi! @Fantu. Are there any other thoughts about what can be improved in the repository description?

Fantu commented 1 year ago

I wrote in previous message but probably my english is bad, sorry, I also don't know how to do better description (and also keeping small and easy) one thing is for example that I think should mention is about the kernel (and probably also that there is a work in progress for upstream integration), where actually a fast search on github about block-level backup with snapshot from kernel don't show blksnap and show only a similar (dattodb) as corresponding to what I wanted to search for in the results showed

Hi. Thanks. Indeed, the output of the search engine can significantly affect the fate of the project. @veeam and I will think about what else we can do for this.
