+rdup is a utility inspired by rsync and the plan9 way of doing things.
+rdup itself does not backup anything. It only prints a list of files
+that are changed, or all files in case of a null dump. It also handles
+files that are removed, allowing for correct incremental backups.
+
+Optional dependency is nettle (to provide encryption for rdup-tr).
