Sorry, but rclone does not do what Relica does. :) And soon Relica will do at least some of what rclone does, and to nearly as many cloud providers.

You should just have mentioned that this tool is built on top of rclone. It's not a bad thing to give credit.

It's built on top of restic, not rclone.

rclone and Restic are both used in Relica. They're both amazing projects and we've been working with their communities to improve them!

We do give credit in the licenses file. The reason we don't mention it on the site yet is because Relica currently ships with rclone but we do not use it, yet. We will be using it once we flip the switch to activate some new features soon!

We've also made a few contributions to rclone and restic so all the work we do on open source projects is available upstream to the main project's users.
