WSL Snappy Release v1.0.0

I'm thrilled to announce the first official release of WSL Snappy, version 1.0.0. This utility tool is designed to make backing up your Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) distributions both efficient and flexible.

What's New in v1.0.0:

  • Backup Capability: Easily back up your WSL distributions to a specified directory.
  • Sequential and Parallel Modes: Choose between sequential backups or the faster "rocket mode" for parallel backups.
  • Simple Configuration: Set up quickly with environment variable configuration.
  • Backup Notifications: Stay informed with notification alerts on backup completion or failure.

Getting Started:

  • Ensure you have Windows 10 or higher with WSL installed, and a Go programming environment.
  • Simply clone the repo, navigate to the directory, and compile the program with GOOS=windows GOARCH=amd64 go build -ldflags="-H windowsgui" -o bin/WSLSnappy.exe cmd/main.go.

Usage:

  • Run .\bin\WSLSnappy.exe for a sequential backup or .\bin\WSLSnappy.exe --rocket for parallel backups.
