[Duplicity-talk] Backing up to older backup chains?

[Gabriel Ambuehl]

Dear List

I was recently pondering whether it would not be smart to allow incremental 
backups to be added to older chains as well. That way, you could efficiently 
maintain multiple chains of backups in case one of them gets corrupted. Only 
thing this really needs would be to assign something like names to the backup 
chains and be able to select which one you want to use. Or even give an option 
to always use two or three?

I know it would be easy to do with different directories as backup targets but 
that's sort of besides the point if you are going to support multiple backups 
in the same dir, isn't it?

Cheers,
Gabriel
