First release of Kup after incubation to become a KDE project.

Kup is a backup scheduler integrating with the plasma desktop with support for versioned incremental backups using bup and for sync-type of backup by using rsync.

Kup version 0.8.0, changes since 0.7.3:

- Change how rsync type backups are stored when only one source folder is selected. This change tries to minimize risk of deleting files for a user who selects a non-empty folder as destination. Added migration code to detect and move your files on first run (avoid copying everything again and double the storage). - Added advanced option to specify a file to read exclude patterns from, for example to never save *.bak files.
- Changes to default settings, hopefully better
- Reduce warnings about files not being included, was raising too much false alarms - Changed to no longer ask for password to unlock encrypted external drives, just for the sake of showing how much space is available. - Fix to not treat a backup saving as failed just because files went missing during the operation, both for rsync and bup. - Start running backup integrity checks and repairs in parallell based on number of CPUs - Added support for bup metadata version 3, which was added in bup version 0.30.
- Lots of smaller fixes to user interface
