gollark: Wow, I really love having to use `grep` to find an option in `--help`!
gollark: Yes.
gollark: Anyway², I'll switch over my backup stuff and use the existing incremental tar thing for smallish compressible directories and rsync for large-scale apiary data.
gollark: Wow, my server just got an "out of disk space" warning for /tmp.
