About this project
What does Fast Backups add?
FastBack
Fast, incremental Minecraft world backups powered by Git
Fastback is a Minecraft mod that backs up your world in incremental snapshots. When it does a backup, it only saves the parts of your world that changed.
This means backups are fast. It also means you can keep snapshots of your world without using up a lot of disk space.

**Now with NeoForge support! **
