# This script performs a backup of all user data:
# 1) System services are stopped while a copy of user data is made.
# 2) An incremental backup is made using rdiff-backup into the
# directory STORAGE_ROOT/backup/rdiff-history. This directory
# will contain the latest files plus a complete history for
# all prior backups.
# 3) The stopped services are restarted.
# 4) The backup directory is compressed into a single file using tar.
# 5) That file is encrypted with a long password stored in backup/secret_key.txt.
