`bupstash` lacked good compression. I settled with `borg` because I could use `zstd` compression with it. Currently at 60 snapshots of the directory and the `borg` repo directory is at ~1.52GB out of 5GB quota. The source directory is ~12.19GB uncompressed. Very happy with `borg` + `zstd` and how they handle my scenario.
I liked `bupstash` a lot, and the author is responsive and friendly. But I won't be giving it another try until it implements much more aggressive compression compared to what it can do now. It's a shame, I really wanted to use it.
I do recognize that for many other scenarios `bupstash` is very solid though.
