I started evaluating Restic with a small subset of my home and I'm loving that I can do things like:
restic --repo sftp:xyz rewrite --exclude .git
restic --repo sftp:xyz rewrite --prune
and get some space back without starting over from a full backup!
Ok, this probably reads back the entire repo, so it should be done on the server, but still... isn't this cool?
