It's your data. Keep it that way.
borgmatic is simple, configuration-driven backup software for servers and workstations. Protect your files with client-side encryption. Backup your databases too. Monitor it all with integrated third-party services.
The canonical home of borgmatic is at https://torsion.org/borgmatic.

- /home
- /etc

- k8pDxu32@k8pDxu32.repo.borgbase.com:repo
- user1@scp2.cdn.lima-labs.com:repo
- /var/lib/backups/local.borg
retention:
# Retention policy for how many backups to keep.
keep_daily: 7
keep_weekly: 4
