OPTIONS

  -h, --help         show this help
  -n, --dry-run      execute dry run, do not backup, just show commands
  -p, --path <path>  add a path that contains a btrfs (sub-) volume
                     (defaults to: ${BTRFS_VOLUMES})
  -m, --mnt <path>   temporary mount point (default: ${TMP_MNT})

not yet implemented:

  -d, --del <number> delete oldes snapshots beginning at <numbers>-th

ENVIRONMENT

  BTRFS_VOLUMES      specify all volume pathes (instead of -p)
  TMP_MNT            temporary mount point (instead of -m)

DESCRIPTION

Creates a snapshot for all btrfs volumes specified. Snapshot is named
from the subvol name or if there is no subvol, from the path by
appending -snapshot-YYYY-MM-DD-HH-mm.

To create regular snapshots on a daily base, just run:

  sudo cp btrfs-snapshots.sh /etc/cron.daily/btrfs-snapshots

If btrfs-snapshots is run from a cron.daily, cron.hourly,
cron. monthly or cron.weekly directory, the periodity is automatically
appended to the snapshot name, and the expiry is set meaningfull:

  - hourly  → keep only 24 hours, --del 25
  - daily   → keep only 7 days, --del 8
  - weekly  → keep only 4 weeks, --del 5
  - monthly → old snapshots are not deleted
