Details:

This feature brings a fully distributed and fault-tolerant backend store
to duplicity. Usage of GPG encryption is not necessary with this backend
because everything is already encrypted by tahoe.

The patch is quite small (<100 lines) and makes heavy use of tahoe CLI.
 It has the advantage of being largely independent from tahoe codebase.

== Quickstart ==

1. Install duplicity version 0.5.03 with attached patch applied

  tar xzfv duplicity-0.5.03.tar.gz
  cd duplicity-0.5.03
  patch -p1 < ../duplicity-0.5.03-tahoe_support.patch
  python setup.py install

2. Install tahoe version 1.2.0 (or greater)
2. Setup a tahoe CLI client, see [2]
3. Create a new directory for your backup

  tahoe add-alias mybackup $(tahoe mkdir)

4. Backup your files

  duplicity --no-encryption /home/me tahoe:///mybackup/

5. Restore your files

  duplicity --no-encryption tahoe:///mybackup/ /tmp/recovery
