restic is a backup program that is fast, efficient and secure. Detailed
|
|
|

|
information can be found in [the documentation](doc/index.md) and [the user
|
|
|
|
|
manual](doc/Manual.md). The [design document](doc/Design.md) lists the
|
|
|
|
|
technical background and gives detailed information about the structure of the
|
|
|
|
|
repository and the data saved therein.
