Been using Restic for a while but I was wondering how does it compare to:

- Rustic https://rustic.cli.rs

- Kopia https://kopia.io

A killer feature rustic has over restic is built-in support for .gitignore files. So all your dependencies and build output is automatically ignored in your backups.

Nice. Using `.gitignore` would simplify my Restic, Borg/Borgmatic, and Rsync-based backup scripts/configs. (Right now, I end up duplicating the same information in a few places, not very well.)
