Description

I would really like to have some sort of backup for Trac, especially since it's open for anonymous edits, which makes it susceptible to defacements and spam.

If possible, I would like to have multiple backups, just in case we miss some changes for a while.

No clue how hard this is to set up, but given the amount of time we're putting into this, IMHO we definetely need it.

this is currently discussed at edgewall:

http://trac.edgewall.org/ticket/1132

a quick solution for rollback/backup functionality would be to use incremental rsync/rdiff-backup every two hours (wiki pages are not much data and can be highly compressed).

  • status changed from new to closed.
  • resolution set to fixed.

There is already a backup system in place on the server. It is currently backing up the site (and others) every night using an rdiff-backup. It keeps up to 30 days of backup.

I think this is probably enough backup for the project.
