backup method "rsync"

Open atfrase opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

It would be great to have a BACKUP_METHOD that simply makes a straight copy of the loose world files using i.e. rsync, without archiving or compressing them like tar. Further rolling or incremental backups could be made from that snapshot using any desired backup tool, or other tools could be run on it such as generating world maps, safe in the knowledge that the snapshot is internally consistent.

That's a good idea.

Something similar to this was implemented in #165. Could likely be closed?
