On my criteria list pcompress almost fullfills every item.
I've read in your blog that you plan to add this feature.

Do you have a branch for that?

Hi,

Thanks for your comments. This feature is in my TODO list after I
release version 3.1.
Currently I am doing testing for this release which will take about a
month. This will also
include a Windows port since quite a few people have asked for that!

Regards,
Moinak.

Please consider reading the obnam manual about retention policy:

It would be nice feature in pcompress to forget very old file versions.

I am very interested in this feature also. I currently use eXdupe for incremental backups of Virtual Machine volumes and I read about Pcompress on your blog regarding incremental support. It seems like Pcompress the way you explained the implementation would work much better then eXdupe and I would like to know what the status of this feature is.

Thank you!
