  22 .SH DESCRIPTION
  23 \fBshbackup\fR is a simple backup solution
  24 which packs user-defined file sets with tar. Each
  25 backup belongs to an epoch, which can be year, month,
  26 week, day, hour or sporadic. The backup can be made
  27 either full, differential or incremental.
  28 \fBshbackup\fR takes care for pruning old
  29 backups. The user defines for each epoch the number of
  30 backups to keep, except for 'sporadic'. Sporadic
  31 backups need to be removed manually.
