+BorgBackup (short: Borg) is a deduplicating backup program. Optionally,
+it supports compression and authenticated encryption.
+
+The main goal of Borg is to provide an efficient and secure way to
+backup data. The data deduplication technique used makes Borg suitable
+for daily backups since only changes are stored. The authenticated
+encryption technique makes it suitable for backups to not fully trusted
+targets.
