BorgBackup, Deduplicating archiver with compression and encryption
I tried a few backup tools and https://github.com/andrewchambers/bupstash is my favorite by far but it's not that well known.
It was pretty fast already and recently got multithread support. It has been the only thing usable for backing up a few TB in a raspberry for performance reasons.
Keep in mind it's relatively new and the author does not yet recommend to use in production as the only backup solution.

Encrypted Backup Shootout
bupstash (rust) - https://github.com/andrewchambers/bupstash
The authors bupstash[1] tool looks interesting.
I see there's an issue made for Windows support, how is that with Rust?
Unless it's doing low-level stuff like directory monitoring I assumed Rust would be quite portable?

What's everyone working on this week (53/2020)?
Benchmarking my backup tool that was written in rust: https://github.com/andrewchambers/bupstash . Rust did not disappoint when it comes to performance, it seems to beat restic by a factor of 2x-200x depending on the benchmark.

I recently learned about CHANGELOG and have a few questions about them
Well, depends on you. There are projects, that more or less put every commit into the CHANGELOG (there are even tools for this) or every PR. (Example)
