Tarsnap is a secure, efficient online backup service: "Online backups for the truly paranoid".

❗ We strongly recommend that people use the latest official release tarball on https://www.tarsnap.com

This repository is intended for developers who may wish to watch changes in progress, investigate bugs, or test new (unreleased) features.

A list of major changes in each version is given in NEWS.md.

Normal users should only use the signed tarballs from https://tarsnap.com, but for experimental development, use:

autoreconf -i
./configure
make

• In order to support the AX_CFLAGS_WARN_ALL autoconf directive, you will need to install the autoconf archive. On Debian, use the autoconf-archive package; on FreeBSD, use devel/autoconf-archive.

• If you receive this message:

    confugre.ac:...: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_MSG_WARN
  

  then you need pkg-config. On Debian , use the pkg-config package; on FreeBSD, use devel/pkgconf.

Bash completion scripts: optional configure argument --with-bash-completion-dir[=DIR].

• If DIR is specified, it installs to that directory.

• If DIR is left blank, it attempts to use pkg-config and bash-completion >= 2.0 to determine where to put the bash completion scripts. If your system does not match those requirements, please specify DIR explicitly.
