Add key:

curl -s http://repos.gch.icu/DEB-GPG-KEY | sudo gpg --no-default-keyring --keyring gnupg-ring:/etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/ge.gpg --import

Update package list and install baka:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install baka

Also you can download DEB package directly: link.

baka pulls the rsync and s3cmd packages as dependencies.

Remote storage

To perform a backup to a remote storage, you need to forward SSH keys between servers in the case of rsync, or configure the .s3cmd config, in the case of copying to an S3-compatible storage (documentation). Of course, nothing prevents you from doing only local backups and transferring them in any convenient way.
