All releases of Box Backup


Release Notes: The diffing algorithm was highly optimised for speed. Bugs were fixed. Solaris support was added. Portability improvements were made, including a new autoconf based build. Xattrs are supported on Linux and Darwin, which backs up resource forks under Mac OS X. Experimental features include keep-alive on long diffing operations, saving state for non-server use, a native Win32 port, and support for MinGW and MSVC under Win32.


Release Notes: This is a maintenance release which includes a number of bug fixes and reliability changes, adds support for large files under Linux, and compiles on new platforms. Solaris and native Win32 ports are available from the project home page.


Release Notes: The server now stores old versions of files as patches from the current version for greater space efficiency. It was also changed to work under 64-bit systems. The client now recovers cleanly from corruption of its working files. The build system has been improved to work on more platforms. Finally, a few minor bugfixes were made.


Release Notes: Minor bugfixes. Improvements to the build process, including better detection of the environment on Linux, especially SuSE 9.x. Incremental improvements on existing features. A feature to allow an external script to pause backups.


Release Notes: This release has been marked as stable, but is not feature-complete. Changes include bugfixes, the use of AES for file data encryption, a Cygwin port of the backup client, and more management commands added to the utilities.


Release Notes: Bug fixes were made. A configurable "max diffing time" parameter was added, and the speed of the diffing algorithm was improved in edge cases. Experimental support for old versions of OpenSSL was added. Read errors on files and directories are now reported neatly, and no longer abort the backup scan. The NetBSD port was fixed. The server is now more tolerant of being unexpectedly aborted.
