Add a "pull" mode?

[rossica]

Currently, this script operates in a "push" mode: the backup client runs the script and connects to the backup server.
I'm proposing a "pull" mode, where the backup server can be configured with a cron job to run the script to connect to the client's SSH server, and then "pull" the new data to backup from the client.
I have a use-case for this, but if you think it's too esoteric, then I wont go through the pull-request process, and only add it to my local version.

HI,

I think it's a good thing to make possible. I didn't add it because I don't
need it (yet) and I don't have the time to do so.

Btw, I noticed my 'day' folder contains more folders for the same day but
different hours. To me, this seems wrong (at most I would expect to see for
instance april 1st, 00:00 and april 1st, 23:00). Can you confirm this
observation?
