Description

Compressed and encrypted backups can be created using xz and GPG. It is useful for users who want smaller backup archives protected with established command-line encryption tools.

Losing the GPG key or passphrase can make restores impossible. Verify archive contents, destination, encryption identity, and recovery steps.

How to run
