trouble with exclude_patterns

Thank you, that was quick. You were right, when I replaced ~ with ${HOME} (in a test config file) and it worked. I can revert to using ~ and my original config file.

trouble with exclude_patterns

Great thanks, I'll try that out. Can I use $HOME in exchange for ~ as the home directory in the config files?

I have decided to move my check script(s) to a separate script I can after borgmatic runs.

Thanks for your help.

Thanks, Rob

Yes, that's correct.

I have spot check added to see if it will replace my scripts.

If I call a bash script from a borgmatic hook, and that calls borgmatic, is that open to the same problem…

"Spot check" of source directories consistency check

Hi @witten

Just wondering, did you see my last feedback and questions above?

Would it be better to put them into a new ticket next time rather than add to this one?

Failure to aquire borg/lock.exclusive when using new spotcheck feature

Thanks for your message, only now I've seen it.

I think it was a manually aborted borg process that left a lock file, I ended up using ssh and removed the lock file manually.

Thanks for the…

seems like I'm getting the same error with rsync.net on my old config file, I' will close this for now and check with them.

mount borg repo after backup, in config file

I tried the "borgmatic -c {configuration_filename}" setting and it worked, I'll use it for now until any new checks are added.

The new consistency check sounds great, it sound similar to why I…
