* Package name : bakunbak Version : 1.0.0 Upstream Author : Michael Webster <miketwebs...@gmail.com> * URL : https://github.com/mtwebster/bakunbak * License : GPL Programming Lang: Python Description : Easily .bak a file or folder, then restore it. This is a simple convenience tool for making temporary 'backup' copies of files or folders, by adding and removing .bak to their filenames. A limited number of options allow copying instead of moving, and forcing overwrite of existing files. - why is this package useful/relevant? For people who do frequent tests on packages that utilize configuration files or folders, backing up and restoring previous configurations can become tedious after a time. This reduces effort. - is it a dependency for another package? It is standalone.. - Do you use it? Yes frequently for testing browser package updates. - If there are other packages providing similar functionality, how does it compare? I've found no other packages (though it's possible something exists in utility/bin package bundles that doesn't get mentioned in package descriptions. - How do you plan to maintain it? It is a simple package, I will maintain it myself. - Are you looking for co-maintainers? No. - Do you need a sponsor? I imagine so, as I've not previously been involved in packaging for Debian.
