ZFS backup utility, using `zfs-send` and `zfs-recv`.
This software is still under construction and is not production ready.
You should use something like [sanoid](https://github.com/jimsalterjrs/sanoid).

## Motivation

Invoking `zfs-send` and `zfs-recv` directly is simple enough for many use cases
that a shell script is typically enough.

But by the time backup retention and other basic backup features are added,
shell scripting gets sloppy.

In general I find most of the existing solutions around this difficult to work on
(sanoid is a 2000+ line Perl script), or overly complex and filled with features
I don't need (zrepl in this case).

I use this personally to backup my personal workstation.

## Usage

Work in Progress.
