Comment on Ask HN: How to keep my data, apps, config movable between computers

Comments

I haven't actually done this yet, but I'm planning to move my backup solution to a home server with a git repo of my /home directory, setting up a cron job on my main comp to push to the repo. It would be space and time efficient, and would make for easy retrieval over the internet if need be. Of course, it also adds the benefit of being able to restore lost files.
