I actually have a different setup for servers so that they initiate their
own full backups via ssh and BackupPC_Servermesg but my laptops all get the
standard treatment of backups every week or when they are hooked up. this
date cannot be scheduled to line up on the 31st of the month as backuppc has
no machanism to do schedules by calender day so i would like to just flag an
incremental as a full so it does not get deleted during the nightly when the
incremental count is exceeded. im not concerned with block level analysis
on these files as they all have their timestamp changed each time they are
written to so it is unnecessary.
basically, i do incrementals throughout the month and want the one from the
31st to be permanent.
