    Summary: A program to generate test data for testing backup software
    Description: 
    genbackupdata creates or modifies directory trees in ways that
    simulate real filesystems sufficiently well for performance testing of
    backup software. For example, it can create files that are a mix of
    small text files and big binary files, with the binary files
    containing random binary junk which compresses badly. This can then be
    backed up, and later the directory tree can be changed by creating new
    files, modifying files, or deleting or renaming files. The backup can
    then be run again.
    
    The output is deterministic, such that for a given set of parameters
    the same output always happens. Thus it is more efficient to
    distribute genbackupdata and a set of parameters between people who
    wish to benchmark backup software than distributing very large test
    sets.
