Description : Prepare backup volume sources to be processed by duplicity
duprepare prepares backup volume sources by creating an image
of files you need to backup. This image is then processed by
duplicity to push it to any backup target.
duplicity is a great program, however it is pain to prepare the backup image.
Using duprepare, you simply list all needed files and it will
take care of syncing them into the image. For complex tasks like
taking mysql database snapshots or ldap dumps, duprepare uses
custom scripts that will prepare the backup files and place
them into the backup image.
