timeshift-autosnap-apt VS btrfs-assistant

Add timeshift-autosnap-apt so that it generates a snapshot at the beginning of every update: https://github.com/wmutschl/timeshift-autosnap-apt

grub-btrfs - Improves grub by adding "btrfs snapshots" to the grub menu. You can boot your system on a "snapshot" from the grub menu. Supports manual snapshots, snapper, TimeShift ... timeshift-autosnap-apt - * Timeshift auto-snapshot script which runs before any apt/apt-get update|install|remove using a DPkg::Pre-Invoke hook in APT.

Timeshift with timeshift-autosnap-apt.

hint: you can configure timeshift to run before each apt command via timeshift-autosnap (I still have to set it up and test it)

I recommend you include timeshift-autosnap-apt and boot time snapshots and increase the number of each to something useful like +30.

I use https://github.com/wmutschl/timeshift-autosnap-apt for automatic snapshots for apt commands.

You might want to take a look at this: https://github.com/wmutschl/timeshift-autosnap-apt

A minimum setup would be Timeshift and wmutschl/timeshift-autosnap-apt configured just to do apt system snapshots.

Also quick shoutout to Btrfs Assistant (also available from on Fedora's own repo). Its a GUI method of making/restoring snapshots. My new workflow is to use this to take a snapshot before upgrading any nvidia driver so that I can easily restore if needed. Sadly the issues this time were more subtle and a few days passed before I figured out that this is linked to the latest nvidia drivers, so I had to manually downgrade anyway.

Use this GUI: https://gitlab.com/btrfs-assistant/btrfs-assistant with snapper. Very easy I'd say.

We implemented this in Btrfs-Assistant https://gitlab.com/btrfs-assistant/btrfs-assistant

I use snapper with btrfs-assistant in EndeavourOS and the GUI absolutely rocks.
