This is a fork of http://code.google.com/p/django-backup/

The original description:
    This application contributes 'backup' subcommand to django-admin.py and manage.py. 
 
The reason for the fork is to add a password protected zipfile feature.  This makes emailing the file more secure, but does not necessarily make it "secure".  Of particular note, the password you use may be visible to other users on system while the zip is running.  Again, more secure but not necessarily "secure"

REF: http://www.lockdown.co.uk/?pg=combi  
 
Usage: 
    python manage.py backup
    python manage.py backup -b (will backup documents directory in addition to the DB)
    python manage.py backup -m [email protected]
    python manage.py backup -m [email protected] -z   (will zip using password in backup.py)
    python manage.py backup -m [email protected] -c   (will compress using GZip -- but does not have password)
