My understanding is that the answer is no.
The best solution I've seen to this is to do your initial backup to a
local device, then rsync that backup directory to a remote device.
rsync can resume just fine. From then on, your backups should be
small enough that they shouldn't be interrupted often.

Hi,
if duplicity is interrupted during a backup, because the computer
crashes, the network goes down or whatever, do I have to restart
the whole backup or can duplicity continue where it was interrupted?
Suppose I want to do a full backup of 100GB and something happens
at 99%. Is duplicity then able to 'repair' the unfinished full
backup and then to transfer the remaining 1% as incremental backup?
Thanks, Patrick
