Note: Starting with Backup Utilities v2.13.0, version support is inline with that of the GitHub Enterprise upgrade requirements and as such, support is limited to three versions of GitHub Enterprise: the version that corresponds with the version of Backup Utilities, and the two releases prior to it.

For example, Backup Utilities 2.13.0 can be used to backup and restore all patch releases from 2.11.0 to the latest patch release of GitHub Enterprise 2.13. Backup utilities 2.14.0 will be released when GitHub Enterprise 2.14.0 is released and will then be used to backup all releases of GitHub Enterprise from 2.12.0 to the latest patch release of GitHub Enterprise 2.14.

Backup Utilities 2.11.4 and earlier, and the legacy branch, offer support for GitHub Enterprise 2.10 and earlier releases.
