X-Summary: data recovery and protection tool
X-Description: |-
  When your disk has crashed and you try to copy it over to another one,
  standard Unix tools like cp, cat, and dd will abort on every I/O error,
  dd_rescue does not.
  It optimizes copying by using large blocks as long as no errors occur
  and falls back to smaller blocks. It supports reverse direction copying
  (to approach a bad spot from the top), sparse copying, preallocating
  space, splice zerocopy, and bypassing the kernel pagecache with O_DIRECT.
  dd_rescue provides safe deletion of data by overwriting files (or better
  partitions/disks) multiple times with fast random numbers.
  With the ddr_hash plugin, it supports calculating a hash value (such as
  a sha256sum) or an HMAC during copying.
