A pure PowerShell-based git backup system.
- Install the PSM1 file as a module.
- Edit the first three lines as desired. You'll need a repo to back up to and restore from.
- Run
Initialize-Backupthe first time.
Run Add-Backup <fileorfolder> to add files and Remove-Backup <fileorfolder> to remove files.
Note that if a folder is given, all children will be backed up.
Show-Backup will list all files and folders marked for backup.
Run Update-Backup to backup all marked files and folders to GitHub. For automated regular backups, this command can be set as a scheduled task.
Run the Deploy-Backup command to restore all backed up files. The contents of the backed up repo will have to be copied over first.
This is meant to be a simple script for ensuring dotfiles and the like aren't lost. There's no granular restoring of individual files (yet?!), and it's not really meant to be used to synchronise across a number of systems.
