* #381: BREAKING: Greatly simplify configuration file reuse by deep merging when including common
configuration. See the documentation for more information:
https://torsion.org/borgmatic/docs/how-to/make-per-application-backups/#include-merging
* #473: BREAKING: Instead of executing "before" command hooks before all borgmatic actions run (and
"after" hooks after), execute these hooks right before/after the corresponding action. E.g.,
"before_check" now runs immediately before the "check" action. This better supports running
timing-sensitive tasks like pausing containers. Side effect: before/after command hooks now run
once for each configured repository instead of once per configuration file. Additionally, the
"repositories" interpolated variable has been changed to "repository", containing the path to the
current repository for the hook.
* #513: Add mention of sudo's "secure_path" option in borgmatic installation documentation.
* #515: Fix "borgmatic borg key ..." to pass parameters to Borg in correct order.
* #515: Fix "borgmatic borg key ..." to pass parameters to Borg in the correct order.
* #516: Fix handling of TERM signal to exit borgmatic, not just forward the signal to Borg.
* #517: Fix borgmatic exit code (so it's zero) when initial Borg calls fail but later retries
succeed.

Given a nested borgmatic configuration data structure as a list of tuples in the form of:
(
ruamel.yaml.nodes.ScalarNode as a key,
ruamel.yaml.nodes.MappingNode or other Node as a value,
),
... deep merge any node values corresponding to duplicate keys and return the result. If
there are colliding keys with non-MappingNode values (e.g., integers or strings), the last
of the values wins.

The purpose of deep merging like this is to support, for instance, merging one borgmatic
configuration file into another for reuse, such that a configuration section ("retention",
etc.) does not completely replace the corresponding section in a merged file.

## Include merging
@ -89,31 +89,35 @@ If you need to get even fancier and pull in common configuration options while
potentially overriding individual options, you can perform a YAML merge of
included configuration using the YAML `<<` key. For instance, here's an
example of a main configuration file that pulls in two retention options via
an include, and then overrides one of them locally:
an include and then overrides one of them locally:
```yaml
<<: !include /etc/borgmatic/common.yaml
location:
...
retention:
keep_daily: 5
<<: !include /etc/borgmatic/common_retention.yaml
```
This is what `common_retention.yaml` might look like:
This is what `common.yaml` might look like:
```yaml
keep_hourly: 24
keep_daily: 7
retention:
keep_hourly: 24
keep_daily: 7
```
Once this include gets merged in, the resulting configuration would have a
`keep_hourly` value of `24` and an overridden `keep_daily` value of `5`.
When there is a collision of an option between the local file and the merged
include, the local file's option takes precedent. And note that this is a
shallow merge rather than a deep merge, so the merging does not descend into
nested values.
When there's an option collision between the local file and the merged
include, the local file's option takes precedent. And as of borgmatic 1.6.0,
this feature performs a deep merge, meaning that values are merged at all
levels in the two configuration files. This allows you to include common
configuration—up to full borgmatic configuration files—while overriding only
the parts you want to customize.
Note that this `<<` include merging syntax is only for merging in mappings
(keys/values). If you'd like to include other types like scalars or lists
