Why not? What am I missing? For Fossil and for SQLite, our "backup" is 3 copies of the repositories for each project, running in three different datacenters, using two separate providers, plus all the local copies we have of each repo. The main repositories stay synced with each other automatically (using cron jobs on the servers). On my (numerous) development machines, I frequently do "fossil all sync" which synchronizes all my private copies of the various repos as well. So there are many copies of each project, each copy including all history going back many years, stored at multiple sites around the world, and constantly updated. How can a backup strategy improve on that? -- D.
