GitHub - arminfro/dd_backup: `dd_backup` is a Linux command-line tool that performs block device backups using the `dd` command with a json config file

I've developed my first Rust program with some help of ChatGPT. The result just got its first release.

You can configure filesystems to host backup image files of devices in a json config file. You can specify the amount of backups for each device, preserving a static size and count.

Running dd_backup run will initiate the backup process, creating backups for all connected filesystems and devices which are configured.

Has some safety features, like checking fsck -n before writing or calls sync before unmount. Never be afraid of confusing if= and of= anymore when running dd 🙈.

dd_backup is designed to run on Linux systems, and you can also utilize it on a booted Linux live system to back up your Windows devices or others.

See the readme for more information.
