"Full system backup"?
Hello, does anyone know about a feature called "Full system backup"? I found something about it in the code: https://github.com/bit-team/backintime/blob/b578fc595dbe55288b709691eb26250b... But I can't find it in the GUI, even not as root. Kind Christian

I once saw BiT qt4 GUI screen shot with a "full system backup" menu entry (which is agains the idea of using rsync). I can't find the link ATM, if I stumble across it I will post it here...
It's a feature that never really materialized, it was introduced (I think) in early 2016: https://github.com/bit-team/backintime/blob/b578fc595dbe55288b709691eb26250b... … but then hidden again in late 2016: https://github.com/bit-team/backintime/commit/dfbd4bb17c1b312a8a21c258096ddf...

Ah, I see. I don't see that someone will finish the implementation and testing in the near future. But I also don't want to forget this feature or the code. My proposal is to conserve the code in an issue. After that we can remove that currently "dead" code from the code base until someone pick it up again. What you all think?
