A script to perform incremental backups using [rsync](https://github.com/WayneD/rsync) and [restic](https://github.com/restic/restic). Why both? Isn't that redundant? Well, I wanted to have some of my backups be more quickly retrievable. Like an on prem "cloud" storage. Rsync fits the bill for that. But I also wanted to backup and compress larger swaths of data for longer term storage. And that's where Restic comes in. Eventually I will rewrite so that rsync runs more often than restic to keep directories and files that are modified more often as up to date as possible.

This script assumes you are running Linux, and have at least basic working knowledge of it and bash scripting. It "works on my machine" which is currently running Pop!_OS 22.04 LTS.
