### root versus non-root

|
These instructions install and run borgmatic as root, because many users want
|
||||||
|
to backup system files that require privileged access. Therefore borgmatic
|
||||||
|
needs to run as root to read them. But if you don't need to backup such files,
|
||||||
|
then you are welcome to install and run borgmatic as a non-root user.
