Incremental backup is really not ...
Authored by: alexmathew on Apr 21, '04 03:57:15PM

Silverkeeper,
Thanks for the clarification - though perhaps I am not yet completely clear on the files moved to Backup 01, Backup 02.

So lets say I want to backup Doc folder with two "copies"
The first backup - Doc is backed up completely to Doc (Is Doc 01 and Doc 02 created now?)
the second backup - Complete mirror to Doc, only changed files to Doc 01?
the third backup - Complete mirror to Doc, Doc 01 to Doc 02 and only changed files to Doc 01.
Is this how it works? If so, then you do have true incremental backups.

Thanks
AM

After a few e-mail exchanges with SilverKeeper author, I find that Incremental Backup IS done right. I have immediately dumped Synk for SK!!
Great App and Great Support!
