Buvt (Back Up and Verification Tool)
Disclaimer
The program is offered as is, there might be serious bugs.
I would call it an alpha version, but I use it myself, so test it, comment it, but be careful when you use it with real data.
Which folders are written
![buvt.png]()
The source database (buvtDb.txt) is always in top-level of the source tree.
The target database, however, may be in an ancestor folder of the target tree (or in the target tree itself). So the target-side-database may cover other files outside the target tree.
Filter files (".buvt-filter" or ".rsync-filter") can be placed in the source tree to control which files and folders are included.
The ".rsync-filter" should work the same way as rsync.
In "Other">"Compare filtering methods" one can compare what is included using the different filtering methods. Also compare with rsync.
