Hi Blair,
if you need just a command line tool to backup files to Swift or ssh or
local, use just the freezer-agent in https://github.com/openstack/freezer
It provides the feature you requested but it does not support S3.
If anyone wants to contribute and add S3 as back end storage, that'd be
fantastic.
Thanks,
Fausto
