Open Source Java Backup Software for Linux

phpEasyVCS is a simple version control system (VCS) with minimal hosting requirements, namely PHP 5.2+. No database is needed. Files can be viewed and uploaded with a browser or by WebDAV, which allows you to access the files like a local drive in all operating systems. For integration with other software a REST service is provided. It is very easy to view the file versions at a specific point in time. The web interface allows you to easily compare file versions and synchronize and merge local files with the files in phpEasyVCS. It is possible to host multiple repositories and define multiple users with full, read-only or no access to each of the repositories.

This is a kind of vcs or archive tool mainly desinged for binary data. It is similar to vcs tools like git, hg, git-annex or boar. Main design goal ist - to deal with hugh binary data files - partial pull/push handling - immutable data archive - simple metadata format of archive - due to immutability other backup tools like rsync or copy could be used alternatively - platform independent
