[FM Discuss] 'manual' backups

[adam]

ok,

so, we will do back ups at the moment every day of the images. the site
'itself' will be stored in git on the booki-dev server. templates will
be backed up once a day (all to a remote server)

this might change after xmas

the postgres db will be backed up more often using pg_dump...aco is
writing scripts for it now. i will post here when we have decided the
frequency
