Zaloha.sh Alternatives

Zaloha.sh

Zaloha is a small and simple directory synchronizer:

* Zaloha is a BASH script that uses only FIND, SORT and AWK.
* All you need is the Zaloha.sh file (contains ~76 kB of program code and ~76 kB of documentation).
* No compilation, installation and configuration is required.
* Cyber-secure: No new binary code, no new open ports, easily reviewable.
* Both directories must be available locally (local HDD/SSD, flash drive, mounted Samba or NFS volume).
* Zaloha does not lock files while copying them. No writing on either directory may occur while Zaloha runs.
* Zaloha always copies whole files (not parts of files like RSYNC). This is, however, fully sufficient in many situations.
* Zaloha has optional reverse-synchronization features.
* Zaloha can optionally compare files byte by byte.
* Zaloha prepares scripts for case of eventual restore.

Full documentation is available both online as well as inside of Zaloha.sh.

On Linux/Unics, Zaloha runs natively. On Windows, Cygwin is needed.
