>borgbackup is still unable to back up to the same repo from multiple hosts at the same time,

Basically still an issue. The machine takes an exclusive lock and it also adds override since each machine has to update it's local data cache (or whatever it's called) because they're constantly getting out of sync when another machine backs up

bupstash looks promising as a close-to-but-more-performant borg alternative but it's still basically alpha quality

It's unfortunate peer-to-peer Crashplan died



What is alpha quality about bupstash?

It has less features than Kopia, but what's there looks like high-quality to me.

(I'm also using it to back up 150 TB (300 million files), on which all other dedup programs run out of memory.)


I guess the docs call it "beta" so maybe that's more accurate. Last I looked a couple months ago there's still a fair bit of corruption issues cropping up
