Feature Name: Convert TIBX to TIB Update
Type: Data Processing / Backup Conversion Utility
Target Users: System administrators, backup engineers, Acronis Advanced users convert tibx to tib upd

Goal:
Convert an Acronis TIBX backup file (incremental or differential) into a standard TIB (True Image Backup) format, preserving the latest snapshot state while removing dependency on the original full backup chain.

To avoid ever needing to convert TIBX to TIB UPD again: python convert_tibx_to_tib

You aren't technically changing the file format (like converting a Word doc to PDF); you are unpacking the contents to retrieve the deployable artifacts inside.

Here is how to do it:

import pandas as pd
def convert_tibx_to_tibup(tibx_file_path: str, tibup_file_path: str) -> None:

    Converts a TibX file to TibUp format.
Args:
    - tibx_file_path (str): Path to the TibX file
    - tibup_file_path (str): Path to save the converted TibUp file
Returns:
    - None
    """
    # Load TibX file into a pandas dataframe
    try:
        tibx_df = pd.read_csv(tibx_file_path)
    except Exception as e:
        print(f"Error loading TibX file: e")
        return
# Perform necessary data transformations (if any)
    # For example, convert date columns to TibUp's expected format
    tibx_df['date_column'] = pd.to_datetime(tibx_df['date_column']).dt.strftime('%Y-%m-%d')
# Save dataframe to TibUp file
    try:
