timeshift-autosnap-apt VS snapper-gui

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.

An alternative GUI is snapper-gui: https://github.com/ricardomv/snapper-gui

Might want to take a look at snapper-gui which is a GUI front-end for snapper tool Not fully sure if its exactly what you're looking for, might explore it

Snapper-GUI

(Fedora) Hey, I've recently installed a program called Snapper-GUI which I want to get rid of(installed it from github). I installed it using git clone, then cd into the directory then ran "python3 setup.py install". But I cannot figure out how to actually uninstall it, I've tried a few commands but it doesn't work.

Secondly, since Snapper is already there in our repositories, adding snapper-GUI(https://github.com/ricardomv/snapper-gui) would be very handy to control BTRFS snapshots graphically.

Thanks, but I had already done that, I was wondering if I could install this: https://github.com/ricardomv/snapper-gui

I use a tool called BTRBK to manage all of this. It takes snapshots at specific intervals, and sends them to an offsite backup servers, hooks to take snapshots before/after events like host upgrades (and host system snapshots show up in the grub menu for easy rollbacks) and pruning of older snapshots. There is no GUI though. There is another popular tool called Snapper that does have a third party GUI last I looked it had less features and was more complex than BTRBK.
