But I totally understand that you chose another direction and cannot maintain two programs. Hence my suggestion.  \r\n\r\nIf it would help, I would be willing to donate for the creation of this."},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/duplicati/duplicati/issues/comments/110120862","html_url":"https://github.com/duplicati/duplicati/issues/1395#issuecomment-110120862","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/duplicati/duplicati/issues/1395","id":110120862,"user":{"login":"kenkendk","id":1510755,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/1510755?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/kenkendk","html_url":"https://github.com/kenkendk","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/kenkendk/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/kenkendk/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/kenkendk/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/kenkendk/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/kenkendk/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/kenkendk/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/kenkendk/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/kenkendk/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/kenkendk/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-06-08T19:58:28Z","updated_at":"2015-06-08T19:58:28Z","body":"The two versions are fundamentally different. The commandline version used the new storage format throughout, and was not using (nor compatible with) the existing files.\r\n\r\nSo having support for the 1.3.x method would mean maintaining two different backup systems. And neither do what you would like, which is to keep a copy of each file on the remote site.\r\n\r\nPerhaps some of the suggested alternatives do what you want: https://github.com/duplicati/duplicati/wiki/FAQ "}}
