Backup strategy

Hi,

I'm trying to setup some nightly backup plan for my repositories. I
need/want to copy them with sftp to another server with public key
authentication (from the DMZ to LAN) and was wondering, if there already
exist out-of-the-box solutions before I get my hands on cron-jobs and
shell-scripts.

Thanks for info on this

regards
Thomas

PS.: What is YOUR backup strategy?

Well, I use hot-backup.py to backup the live repository, and then I use
sitecopy to copy over to an ftp account. I suppose rsync would work great
too (since you mention sftp, and rsync can use ssh as transport).

Remote backups with hot-backup.py and rsync are not as good as they could
be though, since hot-backup generates backup directories with the revision
numbers, there is no possibility of 'incremental' transfer.
