I need to make a backup on my external hard drive. I looked both at rsync and incremental tar. The problem is that I want my backup to be compressed. With rsync I can only compress the data transfer, but not the result.

src=$(wildcard Photos/*.jpg) $(wildcard Photos/*.JPG)
out=$(subst Photos,Compressed,$(src))

Hello, Fedore users.

Search options do not provide this capability.
Is there a way to list/view all compressed files?
Perhaps, this can be done by PowerShell using file/folder attributes and put into a txt file with file location.
How would you go about backing up just some files and subdirectories of a given directory to a compressed archive so that the tree structure could then easily be recreated from that archive.
Basically, rsync, with a little bit of scripting around (to select the files and folders I need) does the job, except I don't want to just copy.
I've been zipping files to send to people, and they're not being compressed, even though it says they are. or maybe they're being super-minimally compressed. But I even managed to zip a folder and have it turn out larger than the size of the original folder.
