Delete Branch "%!s(<nil>)"
Deleting a branch is permanent. Although the deleted branch may continue to exist for a short time before it actually gets removed, it CANNOT be undone in most cases. Continue?
What I'm trying to do and why
Use borgmatic extract/list commands in a secured environement where borg repository are in read-only mode.
Borg add the option --bypass-lock to be compliant with read-only repository.
Other notes / implementation ideas
Environment

I apologize for the super lengthy delay in this getting any attention. A
borgmatic list --bypass-lock
flag seems like a good idea to me. But do you think it would be needed if there was a "read only" borgmatic configuration option as you suggest? That way borgmatic would be responsible for issuing--bypass-lock
as needed. Or perhaps borgmatic could support both in order to handle one-off lock bypassing and global read-only use cases.
