loppel

Simple local file backups with a bit of compression

• GitHub
• crates.io
• docs.rs

loppel creates backup copies of files and directories right where they are – just add .bak, .bak.d, or .tar.zstd if you need them smaller. No cloud, no complicated configs, just quick local copies when you need them.

Perfect for that "let me backup this config before I break it" moment or "I should save a copy before I try this" situation. Restores are just as straightforward, and optionally clean up after themselves.

Think of it as cp with a bit more smarts about what you're copying and how you might want it compressed.
