+# Home Assistant Backup
+
+This project automates the process of backing up your Home Assistant configuration to a private GitHub repository. It includes steps for setting up GitHub, configuring Git, and running backups via a script.
+
+> This guide is for advanced users. This guide is for Alpine Linux.
+
+## Setup Instructions
+
+### 1. GitHub Repository
+1. Go to [GitHub](https://github.com).
+2. Create a private repository named `homeassistant-backup`.
+3. Set the default branch to `master`.
+4. Generate a token with no expiration and full permissions for this specific repository.
+
+### 2. Install Required Add-ons
+- Install the **Advanced SSH & Web Terminal** add-on in Home Assistant.
+- Configure the addon with a password. You need this password later on in the Node Red flow.
+
+### 3. Initialize Git Repository
+SSH in to the server and run the following commands in your terminal:
+
+```bash
+cd /
+sudo git init
+sudo echo "/*\n!/backup/\n!.gitattributes" >> .gitignore
+sudo git remote add origin https://REPLACE_WITH_USERNAME:[email protected]/REPLACE_WITH_USERNAME/homeassistant-backup.git
+```
+
+#### Install Git LFS to uplodad files > 100 MB
+bash```
+sudo apk add git-lfs
+sudo git lfs install
+sudo git lfs track "*.tar"
+
+sudo git add .gitattributes .gitignore
+sudo git commit -m "Track .tar files with Git LFS"
+sudo git push -u origin master -f
+```
+
+# Create the backup script:
+bash```
+cd /
+sudo nano backup.sh
+```
+
+Add:
+
+bash```
+#!/usr/bin/env bash
+set -e
+HA_VERSION_FILE="/homeassistant/.HA_VERSION"
+if [[ ! -f $HA_VERSION_FILE ]]; then
+    echo "Error: Home Assistant version file not found at $HA_VERSION_FILE"
+    exit 1
+fi
+HA_VERSION=$(cat "$HA_VERSION_FILE")
+COMMIT_CURRENT_DATE=$(date +'%d-%m-%Y %H:%M:%S')
+COMMIT_MESSAGE=":safety_vest: [$HA_VERSION]: $COMMIT_CURRENT_DATE"
+sudo git add /backup
+sudo git commit -m "$COMMIT_MESSAGE"
+sudo git push -u origin master -f
+```
