New Debian package description
Dear folks, I would like to rewrite Debians package description of Back In Time. That descriptions appear in the apt repository, in the package tracker etc. [1] If you see a non-English description this comes from Debians own translation team. We don't have to take care of it. They are automatically notified when the original text is updated. That is the current text: Description: simple backup/snapshot system (common files) Back In Time is a framework for rsync and cron for the purpose of taking snapshots and backups of specified folders. It minimizes disk space use by taking a snapshot only if the directory has been changed, and hard links for unmodified files if it has. The user can schedule regular backups using cron. I suggest to use the Wiki section on GitHub [2] to develop a new version of this text and to keep track of modifications in the Wikis history unit we have consense. I just offered a new version. A bit shorted and simpler. The original source is in a GitLab repository of Debian Salsa instance [3]. The descriptions for the CLI and the Qt package are separated in that file. I can make an PR against that repo when we have consense about a new version.
