1.4.15
* #123: Support for mounting an archive as a FUSE filesystem via "borgmatic mount" action, and
unmounting via "borgmatic umount". See the documentation for more information:
https://torsion.org/borgmatic/docs/how-to/extract-a-backup/#mount-a-filesystem
1.4.14
* Show summary log errors regardless of verbosity level, and log the "summary:" header with a log
level based on the contained summary logs.
1.4.13
* Show full error logs at "--verbosity 0" so you can see command output without upping the
verbosity level.
1.4.12
* #247: With "borgmatic check", consider Borg warnings as errors.
* Dial back the display of inline error logs a bit, so failed command output doesn't appear
multiple times in the logs (well, except for the summary).
1.4.11
* #241: When using the Healthchecks monitoring hook, include borgmatic logs in the payloads for
completion and failure pings.
* With --verbosity level 1 or 2, show error logs both inline when they occur and in the summary
logs at the bottom. With lower verbosity levels, suppress the summary and show error logs when
they occur.
1.4.10
* #246: Fix for "borgmatic restore" showing success and incorrectly extracting archive files, even
when no databases are configured to restore. As this can overwrite files from the archive and
lead to data loss, please upgrade to get the fix before using "borgmatic restore".
* Reopen the file given by "--log-file" flag if an external program rotates the log file while
borgmatic is running.

1.1.11

* #34: Improve clarity of logging spew at high verbosity levels.

it. Dropping Attic support will allow faster iteration on Borg-specific
features. If you're still using Attic, this is a good time to switch to Borg!
* Project renamed from atticmatic to borgmatic. See the borgmatic README for
