A utility made with Go that allows you to backup your files with ease.

Intializes B.U.P in a folder inputed by the user and creates a config file containing some useful information about the project and a log file for later use.

Example:

$ bup start
> Backup directory: home/user/Documents/backup_folder
> Project name: example_name
> Project version: example_version
> Author: example_author
> License: example_license

After the setup the application should create a config file with the following content:

{
    "ID": "ab530a13e45914982b79f9b7e3fba994cfd1f3fb22f71cea1afbf02b460c6d1d",
    "IsInit": true,
    "CreatedAt": "01-02-2021 17:20",    
    "BackupDirectory": "home/user/Documents/backup_folder",
    "RootDirectory": "home/user/Documents/root_folder",
    "ProjectName": "example_name",
    "ProjectVersion": "0.0.1",
    "Author": "John Doe",
    "License": "M.I.T",
}

And a log file with the following content:

{
    "Message": "Waiting to be intializated... Run ~bup commit~ in order to create a new commit...",
}

Note: if the folder already exists the program will ask the user to delete it, or end execution

Writes the message inputed by the user to the log file inside the root_directory

Example:

$ bup commit
> Commit message: Example message
> Commit ID:6a31f6b3cd64604c3098 successfully saved within log.json

After writting the commit message the log.json file should look like this:

[
    {
        "ID": "6a31f6b3cd64604c3098",
        "Message": "Example message",
        "CreatedAt": "01-02-2021 18:15",
    }
]

Note: this command will only work if the log file is already created.

Copies the files from the root_directory to the backup_directory

Example:

$ bup push
> Copying: /home/user/Documents/root_folder/document.txt
> Copying: /home/user/Documents/root_folder/sub_folder/
> Copying: /home/user/Documents/root_folder/sub_folder/document2.txt
> Successfully copied /home/user/Documents/root_folder/ content to /home/user/Documents/backup_folder/

Note: this command will only work if the log file is already created and initialized.
