I been looking for a command to do that, thanks 
My Google skills say
try…
cp -u /home/mike/Node-Red-Stuff/ /mnt"/NodeRed/"
Are you including that after the delete node?
EDIT: again Mac being different does not allow -u. I’m testing with -rn and seem to be working. LMK of RPi works with -u, -rn, or both.
cp -rn /Users/minimac/Backups /Volumes/1backup/Node-Red
Thanks that site was helpful. This works on linux (for those following along at home).
cp -nRu /home/mike/Node-Red-Stuff/ /mnt"/NodeRed/"
I haven’t run through this discussion with a fine tooth comb, so sorry in advance if its been covered, but I’ve enabled the Projects feature on Node Red and its backing up all the important stuff to my Github account: Projects : Node-RED
It not only includes versioning/backup of flows but also builds up the palette dependencies so you know which to install when you restore. So far I’m been very impressed. Faffed around with the SSH keys to enable the new authentication with Github but once setup its seemless. Can be automatic or manual push to online…
It’s definitely worth a look.
Here is another way to backup NodeRed if you have it in Docker as well as any other Docker container you have too. How good is Docker right? 
I think I riffed on both (yours and @Royski) and leveraged the basic framework that I have for my Hubitat download/backup process! The primary difference is that I ftp the backup to a NAS and delete the local backup. I also use Pushover for notifications (have a Notification subflow that I use in various places).
If anyone wants the flow(s), just ping me.
PS: I was wondering where some of you folks went - glad to find you again 
and we’re glad you made it!
Please post the sequence. I been looking for a good way to offload the backups from my iMac. Not great w/Linux so mounting volumes, blah blah… FTP sounds like a ‘better’ approach.
Here is the flow - let me know if you have any questions. Also, if you see any “private” information (not sure if the Pushover keys come across in the subflow), please PM me.

Bookmarked. I’ll be back to this.
Please add three ``` (the thing next to the 1 key) to the beginning and the end of your exported flow text. That will insert the flow as code. Without them it’s not importable (see my 1st post for example as well)

Hope this works.

Perfect!
I downloaded the flow from @rakgupta and install and deleted it but I getting this error? and now all of my flows has stop, is there something that I can do to set rid of this error?
On the right hand side, under config nodes, you should see one wrapped in dashes like so:
click once, then press delete. Should remove it.
Do you see a subflow called “Notification Handler”? I use Pushover in that flow to send messages (moving away from that now). If you see that, please delete it and that should get rid of the message.
I did that but it still shows up and I also use pushover? Anyway I copy and moved everything into another pi and got it up and running? I was being not smart when I delete it the way I did and mess it up. Thanks
Glad you got it working.
I use node-red-contrib-ftp v 0.0.6
Thanks. I like how you moved the backup to a NAS and get it off of the PI.
