BtrBack vs X Backup

BtrBack is a Minecraft Java server plugin for making and restoring full-server backups with Btrfs snapshots. It stores backups locally, supports scheduled backups, and uses a custom retention policy. Operators install the plugin in the server’s plugins folder and use `/btrback [backup/rollback]` to create a backup or start a rollback. Normal backups appear in the `backupSnapshots` section of `backups.json`. Before a rollback, the plugin also snapshots the current server state and records it under `rollbackSnapshots`, outside the regular backup list. Restoring a backup reboots the server twice: once to restore the saved state and again to start normally. Setup requires placing the server directory in a Btrfs subvolume and mounting the root subvolume with `user_subvol_rm_allowed`. The public repository includes the Good Luck With That Public License, which permits copying, distribution, modification, merging, selling, publishing, and sublicensing at the user’s own risk.
