       bup is a program for making backups of your files using the git file format.

       Unlike  git(1) itself, bup is optimized for handling huge data sets including individual very large files
       (such a virtual machine images).  However, once a backup set is created, it can still be  accessed  using
       git tools.

       Subcommands are described in separate man pages.  For example bup-init(1) covers bup init.

       BUP_ASSUME_GIT_VERSION_IS_FINE
              If set to true, yes, or 1, assume the version of git in the path is acceptable.

       --version
              print bup’s version number.  Equivalent to bup version.

       -d, --bup-dir=BUP_DIR
              use  the  given  BUP_DIR  parameter as the bup repository location, instead of reading it from the
              $BUP_DIR environment variable or using the default ~/.bup location.
