    > # avoidng collisions with other rsync processes

    Use https://github.com/instacart/ohmycron

    > MONTHROTATE=monthrotate # use DD instead of YYMMDD

    Use https://rotate-backups.readthedocs.io/en/latest/readme.html

    > $RSYNC -avR "$SOURCE" "${RSYNCCONF[@]}"

    Just create a one-line script with the hardcoded rsync command you want to use and replace the directory to sync as a command-line argument, e.g.

      #!/bin/sh

    My go-to backup solution, that can also manage rsync over ssh (among plenty other things), is synbak[0]. Short wrapper script to automatically mount the backup medium and it's really simple to (automatically) run a backup job. I use encrypted (LUKS) USB drives for that at home. Highly recommend it.

    For encrypted backups to e.g. a NAS, Duplicity[1] is my go-to choice (full backup every month or so, with incremental backup every day inbetween).
