#
# Config file options
# -------------------
#
#   [general]
#   log = rsync log file
#   partition = partition where the backup lives
#   fscheck = set to 1 if fsck should run on $partition after the backup is made
#   read_only = set to 1 if $partition is mounted read-only
#   mountpoint = backup partition mountpoint or backup main folder (either local or remote)
#   backupdir = folder relative do $mountpoint where the backup should be stored (local or remote)
#   format = specify backup storage format: short, long or mirror (i.e, no rotations)
#   days = for short storage format, specify the number of backup increments (min = 5)
#   keepdaily = for long storage format, specify the number of daily backup increments
#   keepweekly = for long storage format, specify the number of weekly backup increments
#   keepmonthly = for long storage format, specify the number of monthly backup increments
#   lockfile = lockfile to be kept during backup execution
#   nicelevel = rsync command nice level
#   enable_mv_timestamp_bug = set to "yes" if your system isnt handling timestamps correctly
#   tmp = temp folder
#   multiconnection = set to "yes" if you want to use multiconnection ssh support
#
#   [source]
#   from = local or remote
#   host = source hostname or ip, if remote backup
#   port = remote port number (remote source only)
#   user = remote user name (remote source only)
#   testconnect = when "yes", test the connection for a remote source before backup
#   include = include folder on backup
#   exclude = exclude folder on backup
#   ssh = ssh command line (remote source only)
#   protocol = ssh or rsync (remote source only)
#   rsync = rsync program
#   rsync_options = rsync command options
#   exclude_vserver = vserver-name (valid only if vservers = yes on backupninja.conf)
#   numericids = when set to 1, use numeric ids instead of user/group mappings on rsync
#   compress = if set to 1, compress data on rsync (remote source only)
#   bandwidthlimit = set a badnwidth limit in kbps (remote source only)
#   remote_rsync = remote rsync program (remote source only)
#   id_file = ssh key file (remote source only)
#   batch = set to "yes" to rsync use a batch file as source
#   batchbase = folder where the batch file is located
#   filelist = set yes if you want rsync to use a file list source
#   filelistbase = folder where the file list is placed
#
#   [dest]
#   dest = backup destination type (local or remote)
#   testconnect = when "yes", test the connection for a remote source before backup
#   ssh = ssh command line (remote dest only)
#   protocol = ssh or rsync (remote dest only)
#   numericids = when set to 1, use numeric ids instead of user/group mappings on rsync
#   compress = if set to 1, compress data on rsync (remote source only)
#   host = destination host name (remote destination only)
#   port = remote port number (remote destination only)
#   user = remote user name (remote destination only)
#   id_file = ssh key file (remote destination only)
#   bandwidthlimit = set a badnwidth limit in kbps (remote destination only)
#   remote_rsync = remote rsync program (remote dest only)
#   batch = set to "yes" to rsync write a batch file from the changes
#   batchbase = folder where the batch file should be written
#   fakesuper = set to yes so rsync use the --fake-super flag (remote destination only)
#
#   [services]
#   initscripts = absolute path where scripts are located
#   service = script name to be stoped at the begining of the backup and started at its end
#
# You can also specify some system comands if you don't want the default system values:
#
#   [system]
#   rm = rm command
#   cp = cp command
#   touch = touch command
#   mv = mv command
#   fsck = fsck command
#
# You dont need to manually specify vservers using "include = /vservers".
# They are automatically backuped if vserver is set to "yes" on you backupninja.conf.
#
# Changelog
# ---------
# 
# 20090329 - rhatto at riseup.net
#
#   - Added support for: 
#     - Remote destinations
#     - Long rotation format similar to maildir handler
#     - Batch files through --read-batch and --write-batch
#     - Custom file list using --files-from
#     - SSH persistent connection using ControlMaster
#     - The rsync:// protocol
#   - Metadata folder for each backup folder
#   - General refactoring
#   - Code cleanup
