Hi all,

I'm interested in creating backups manually so I can use a different
compression algorithm. Based on the source code[1], it looks like backups
are just created by adding each file (excluding upd.basex) in the database
directory to a .zip file, so I could do the same using tar and my
compression algorithm of choice. Is my understanding correct or am I
missing some other logic?

Thanks,
Matt
