TimeVault

February 13, 2008
TimeVault is an uncomplicated frontend for creating snapshots of multiple directories.

License GPL
Platform Linux

If you're a GNOME/Ubuntu user who's looking for a simple, efficient backup tool, you may want to give TimeVault a try. This user-friendly software allows you to create snapshots of any set of directories, providing you with a perfect copy of your files and folder structures at a given point in time.

TimeVault boasts an easy-to-use interface that makes the backup process a breeze. And once you've created a snapshot, you can access and restore previous versions of individual files or directories directly from Nautilus - just click on the 'Previous Versions' tab in the Properties window.

One of the great things about TimeVault is that it keeps your snapshots protected from accidental deletion or modification. By default, your snapshots are read-only. And even if you need to save space by deleting intermediate snapshots, files and directories that existed both before and after the deletion will still be accessible.

So what exactly is a snapshot? In simple terms, it's a copy of a directory at a specific point in time. But TimeVault's approach is a little more complex than just making a full backup every time. Instead, it uses hard links to only back up files that have changed, incrementally creating what's essentially a complete copy of your folder structure.

While this process may sound intimidating at first, it's actually highly efficient - it takes up little space and runs quickly, without hogging your system resources. The only files that are hard-linked are individual files; directories, for technical reasons, must be recreated. But if you're looking for a reliable, user-friendly backup tool for GNOME/Ubuntu, TimeVault is definitely worth a closer look.
