Description

Tarsnap backups can be rotated automatically with retention helper scripts. TSAR, Tarsnap Always Rotating, is for administrators who want scripted snapshot naming, pruning, and listing around an existing Tarsnap setup.

Run `tsar` from a terminal after configuring Tarsnap credentials and targets. Backup rotation can delete old archives, so test retention settings before using it on critical backup histories.
