Describe the feature
First off, I have no idea how the current terminal backup works but it takes too long
it’s still take time even for a fresh terminal I’ve never actually made a backup
So for a lighter backup option, it should only grab the important stuff like:
- .bashrc
- .ssh
- .config
- List of installed packages
- Files in /root
- /home (but skip heavy stuff like node_modules and anything you can just reinstall) optional
- Other common important files
It should also:
Let me pick what to backup and what to skip via a simple UI
Show me estimated backup time and size before starting
user should at least get some feedback 😑
Restore packages automatically when I restore
so an option for updating the terminal
